You might as well say it's interesting that my neighbour drives a Range Rover while I have a golf.

I think it interesting and question what the country would benefit more from, elite level athletes possibly winning a medal every four years or sport for all, all year round, that's without even mentioning the legacy that people keep trotting out like a dancing horse, what is the legacy of winning all these medals if the youngsters have no where to train to emulate them, perhaps we can try hothousing anyone under 5 who shows even a glimmer of talent next.
You are right though I am you young to be so cynical
