Tokyo certainly doesn't have the best Japanese food in the world. You can go to any small town or provincial city to get better.

They just got out-played by the other teams. The fact is the US, Cuban, and Korean teams were just better than them in Beijing. They can complain about a rules change all they want, but every team played by those same rules. I don't know if the coach was especially bad, but I can't imagine he deserves as much hate as he seems to be getting. They came in 4th which isn't bad considering how strong the medalist teams are. I seem to remember Korea beating Japan twice at the WBC.

The amount of radioactive subtance discharged was reported to be less than .5 microcurie. I am told that a barium meal that you get at the hospital is generally more than 1 microcurie, so this discharge is really next to nothing as far as the potential damage it could cause.

Hmm... somehow I don't see this coward kicking a fully-grown mastiff to death even though I'm sure he'd be "scared by the dog”. Just another of these cowards who can only act out on helpless things.
