Depends who you are Morty.

If I was Becky Adlington and got a bronze after Beijing's Gold, I'd be disappointed.

 

[alecstilleyedye]

depends on the pre-event expectation…

 

[MrJamie]

Definitely, not many people get any kind of olympic medal We should be proud to be represented in as many sports as we are by people who have qualified too.

It also depends on the sport, I think most people would be damn proud of a 100m silver medal these days

 

[ianrauk]

it's a medal. So yes.

This Is the argument my work colleague was trying to get across to me

 

[GrumpyGregry]

why do we stop celebrating at 3rd? Why not a bigger podium and medals down to 5th?
