OT: Olympic Badminton Controversy

[Icebear]

I read that it was the second racket sport, after tennis. Let alone Rugby. Might be how one determines popularity. i.e. more people play soccer in USA than any other sport, but it's not near the most popular.

That's why I gave you a link and quotes from England.

I'll stick with what I read.....and it makes more sense (to me) anyway.

Never let facts compiled by the British national sports bureau confuse one.

I disagree it was the same thing. Going all out like that carries the risk of injury, esp in skating. Could legitimately make the same argument when they play all the subs. Very different for someone to pull a jai-alai move.
