Don't know what to say, specially when you are in a foreign country and when someone comes to you and admires our athlets talents and team work by saying "You
Ethiopians are something else". I am so happy for all of our athlets. God bless them and our country. From: Ethiopia |

It just happened a day after the end of Sydney olympic for the first time. As usual noticing my unique face and style among the crowd on a certain event, I was asked from where I am from. I replied I am from
Ethiopia. This time I did not need to explain why we are in war or why there is hunger in my country. But the inquirer with loud voice said "A COUNTRY OF GREAT RUNNERS!" and grasped my hand with a
warm shake and congratulated me. Luckly that individual knows all about out athlets including their name and the topic then after among the crowd was about the heroic achievements of Ethiopis at olympics
from the time of Abebe Bikela. Thank you our athlets for lighting out pride in the foreign land and letting us loudly speak out our origin. May God Bless You! From: Los Angeles |

Selam everybody! It is really amazing how "OUR BLACK TIGERS" performed in this Olympiad. Though we were dissappointed on how the Western media (Especially American) were reporting about our team,
Our Heros showed from what they are made of again. And I don't have any doubt that they gonna show the world the same trend again and again in the future. Let me stop here. Selam. M.H From: Chicago |
