Mark: What does it matter when it was released? Bottom line is that he won. Case closed. Olympics are tightly governed (with the expection of womans gymnatics).
Doubt, uncertainty -- both are bad. To let them linger is worse yet.
Phelps is a sponsored athlete by Omega.
What if it was NOT released.
What does it matter to NOT release them.
I'm all in favor of being open with public dealings. The race results are public dealings. But, these race result photos were delayed in their release by days.
They should have been released as time unfolded them.
Uncertainy...the people in the country you are at face that every day with government crackdowns based upon whims and fear.
Mark, you don't think China had a delay in this...as you say...think again. Bottom line, the clock showed the time, and the pictures were a moot issue.
And, btw..the country your in...they don't care what you think.
Human rights and opinions come last where you are at now.
Exactly. Two wrongs don't make it right.
Because there is uncertainty in life in China, we need to work against uncertainty in sport and then have that clarity transcend from sport to life everywhere.
BTW, I'm state-side again, now, thankfully.
