Racism will always bother 'us' South Africans. But it musn't contradict ''our thinking capacity''. My take; views on this matter. m, Feel free to add your comment!
I have enjoyed watching South Africa's Sports Awards 2013 on Sunday 17. Those who won deserve a round of applause. I couldn't help it, the last award 'Sports Star of the Year'! It came as surprise, even Khune himself was overwhelmed. Critically speaking I thought Chad Le Clos would win it. Yes, the ''Golden Boy'' was busy as a bee throughout the year. Le Clos was nominated along with Khune, Hashim Amla [cricketer], Lucas Sithole [tennis] and Mapaseka Makhanya [runner].
Itumeleng Khune and Minie
Itumeleng Khune, SA no1 goalkeeper, Bafana Bafana and Kaizer Chiefs captain. As much as I am Kaizer Chiefs [Khosi4Life] supporter and admire Khune's god-given talent, I was surprised and thought the sensational Le Clos would win it. Khune is brilliant, awesome, the best there's in the goalkeeping department and a good leader as well. He's role as captain, especially at Kaizer Chiefs pays off very well; he excel tremendously.
Oh! Chad Le Clos a sensational swimmer, magnificent and victorious at any level of competition. There's nothing compared to him when it come to SA's swimming. Le Clos is currently a record holder in 200m butterfly, which he won recently at Fina Swimming World Cup. In 2012, he beat Michael Phelps to win a gold medal. The 21 year-old have won multiple medals and he continues to impress us by putting SA swimming Federation on the map.
Call it what you want, mediocre maybe? I tell you Kaizer Chiefs fans voted ; the people have spoken and Khune won SA Sports Star of the Year. Congratulations... keep up the good work.
