Your use of other sports to make your case against perfectly good athletes is more fun than constructive.Originally Posted by Mathman
On the question of "one lucky/unlucky performance at Nationals" -- I notice that athletes themselves never talk about luck.
In basketball there is an expression, "ball don't lie."
At the NBA level, the attitude of the players is. if I shoot the ball correctly it will go in. If it rims out, that is prima fascia evidence that I did not shoot it correctly.
Mirai, for example will be skating against the US World Team. If she beats the US Ladies at 4CC would you not consider that as mistake in the hometown selection of the World Team?
