NOTE: I am not making this point. I just see it about once a week in the Olympic category. Somebody tries to say not much skill or athletecism involved.

Make your counter point.
GOOD JOB EVERBODY YES PEOPLE ATTACK WHAT THEY DON’T UNDERSTAND. i THINK SOME PEOPLE HAVE A REAL BIAS AGAINST SAILING CONFUSING IT WITH WHAT THYE SEE ON THE LAKES OVER THE WEKEND.
SAILING IS SET UP SO THAT SKILL IS REWARDED AS ALL THE BOATS ARE THE SAME AND POINTS ARE BASED OVER SEVERAL RACES REWARDING THOSE THAT ARE CONSISTENT AND NOT JUST A FLUKE.
