I wish I was 5'10" not 5'2". Imagine I have to compete with people who are 5'10!

Get over it, it's the nature of sports.

Not being obtuse - I just didn't pay attention to the Olympics other than the swimmer 'mugging' that never happened story and the gymnast everyone whined poetic about not saluting during a ceremony.

A cry baby. You win or you lose - that's life. But that's my very American perspective.

am 5' 8" and not at all athletic. I have several female friends who are 5' 10" and over and ditto the feet.

Women come in all shapes and sizes. This poor dear needs to suck it up and eat a cookie.

This ain't nothin' new. I noticed she didn't say that mess before the race or in front of those "Huge" Black women.
