I've gotten the explanation straight from the top. I will not defend it because the strategy they used is based on the premise that the USA has a better hope of a 2012 medal in the keelboat event than the multihull.


If they are telling you the truth, then if US teams top the F14, F16, F18, Tornado, and A class circuit in mens and womens then we will have 10 multihull events in 2016. I think that is what I saw a bull drop in a paddock. Its astonishing that any country has the right to drop or include events due to its percieved ability to dominate them. I'm going to lobby the rival TV station to show repeats of Hogans Hero's and Rat patrol, whilst the olmpic broadcast is on so that I have something exciting to watch <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />.
