AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME. We may not be lighting up the world at the Olympics but just wait for the Amakrokokroko, why does this country consistently produce paralympic teams that punch way above their weight level?
Our country is not only home to the arguably the two best paralympians, Oscar Pistorius and Natalie Du Toit, but also claimed 15 Gold medals in Athens, 13th place overall and a staggering tally of 35 total medals. Which begs several questions why don't we fire the whole of SASCOC and replace them with DISSA? Why on earth don't we as South Africans make more noise about our paralympians? And where the hell can I get a Amakrokokroko t-shirt!
I'll leave the last words to Oscar "you are not disabled by the disabilities you have, you are able by the abilities you have."
