wanted to put this in the study...but it was still martial arts related...
basically...the short version, if you haven't heard...is that an iranian judoka "withdrew" from the olympics when he would have been forced to compete against an israeli...the official word was that he was "overweight"....
but then you see stuff like this and it makes wonder....
whatever happened to the discipline, respect and humility martial arts are supposed to teach us...
