why do so many denigrate, downplay our British sportsmen and women
One thread from yesterday was about Andy Murray losing. The media do this a lot. I reckon that we have some of the best sportsmen and women in the world, and should celebrate that. Some people are not interested in sport, but with the Olympics coming up, it's time for a bit of cheer. not the negativity that often pervades our nation. So well done Andy, your tears made me sad, but you will be back. As to Bradley Wiggins who took the Yellow Jersey, bravo.
