South African 'Blade Runner' Oscar Pistorius has made the Olympic team and will compete in London in the 400 meters. Qualifying run is
here.
Since I'm a big fan of fairness, I'd like to state my let's-all-hug-and-come-together opinion as follows: This ain't right. Yeah, it's a heart warming story, he's overcome great hardship, blah blah blah, but those blades are like something a character in
The Avengers might wear. How much does that improve his stride by? It's like launching yourself with each step.
Next thing you know they'll allow him to attach giant springs to the bottom of his legs and let him compete in the high jump.
