I'd love to say unbelievable but unfortunately I can believe it. Good old marketing companies. What would we do without them?

I was going to get some Olympic tickets for the women's badminton too. Wish I had now. (Not because of the skirts, obviously, but to help boost their "flagging" sales). Can they really not think of any other way to increase sales? Really?

Apart from "aargghh!!!"

What are they thinking???

If they want to boost the numbers watching, why not make the men play topless so that we can admire their chests?
