Does it bother you?

I've thought about it for a few times. But then, you have to look at people like Shawn Johnson whose coach is really a Chinese, yet he lives in the US and coaches here. Then, there is the gold medal winner for the gymnastics. She was born in Moscow and her whole family now lives in Texas and they are really Russian. So I guess it could go either way.

I totally agree with and that and do not believe that it is fair for someone to play with their own country but they are now residing in America. Like Manu Ginobili, for the San Antonio, Spurs he isn't playing for America either, and that upsets me.

It doesn't bother me. If you have citizenship in another country, I think it's fine you represent them. What I have an issue with is people who don't really have ties with a nation representing them in the Olympics. For example, there is this American swimmer whose parents were from Serbia. So, he's eligible to swim for them, even if he's not a citizen and has never lived there. That bothers me!

I can see your point. And yes it does bother me. It bother me that lots of people in the USA are bearly making enough money to just cover modest living needs. and Others can come here and get a huge Paycheck. That takes away from someone Born here. I tell things are just messed up any more! I agree that he should not earn money from here and represent China.

yeah but every one is all over the place someone who used to be a US citizen may be living in china right now. Its not only US citizens representing other coutries, it happens most places. so every country can argue that is it right that they are earning here but representing some other country. In my opinion you should have the right to represent any country you want. He is not the only person doing this there are tohers too and if every one can do that so it is not a problem. It is not going against any rules or anything so it is ok.
