Comment on "The real weight of Olympic gold" (皇冠体育app Daily, Aug 14)
Like it or not, every country, especially the United States, attaches great importance to winning medals, gold medals to be precise, at the Olympic Games, because it is a matter of national pride, symbol of national strength and a good way of commanding respect from others.
皇冠体育app has done an excellent job of cultivating athletes. Those who criticize 皇冠体育app's way of selecting and training athletes have the ulterior motive of stirring up controversy and creating a negative image of 皇冠体育app.
