I like some competitions but I hate sport chilean press; at least the people that transmit by television this games. Why?</span><br /><br /><span style="" lang="EN-US">I can not understand Why some chilean journalist show too much happiness </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: georgia;" lang="EN-US"><span style="font-size:100%;">and enthusiasm to people of the others countries. Why in Chile people would have to be happy with U.S. swimmer obtain 8 gold medals? Why chilean television press would have with a </span>Russian girl that surpass her own record of jump with garrotxa??</span><br /><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: georgia;" lang="EN-US"></span><br /><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: georgia;" lang="EN-US">Why celebrate people that even know about our country?</span><br /><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: georgia;" lang="EN-US"></span><br /><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: georgia;" lang="EN-US">We could think in something as lack of national identity, but I Think that is just the opposite. I suppose that this fact could be explained whit a feeling that is importan part of chilean national identity: Desire of success. </span><br /><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: georgia;" lang="EN-US"></span><br /><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: georgia;" lang="EN-US">Success is a very important word in the spirit of national culture in the present time. Then, is not strange that press television try to transmit the triumph of athletes to the others nation as if it were our. So far, each gold medals from countries like USA, China, Russia, and others developed nation is felt like our... at least, that is the image that television press show through cameras.</span><br /><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: georgia;" lang="EN-US"></span><br /><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: georgia;" lang="EN-US">The desire of success in a country where a few people give importance to sport, in a place where less people practice some sport, is dificult to have a good athletes. And satisfactions of this desire that express in the sport, now, when the sport is sign of success, where to win is more than other time, sign of "to be the best".</span><br /><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: georgia;" lang="EN-US"></span><br /><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: georgia;" lang="EN-US">I like wathc some competition, but i think that is not necessary identified with triumph of foreigners athletes for enjoing this games. I’m glad with the gold medals obtained by panamanian Irving Saladino, and silver medals that has been obtained by chilean Fernando Gonzales.</span><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4929188080945715595-3015348219627732986?l=marcos-mb-ingles.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Marcosnoreply@blogger.com0
