Most brazilians in the olympic community don't support Wild including some members here (that I know of). Some even mention the abuse allegations when reporting his results. I, for one, couldn't care less about him (don't even know his results at the Olympics).
It's your point of view and that's fine, probably nothing will ever change it. But I really can't think of Brandie as a "class act". In Brazil we would say she's "debochada" (which in english would loosely translate as a "mocker").
Brasil está melhor do que eu esperava nesses primeiros dias, apesar de ter escapado uma medalha ou outra. Muito feliz pelo bronze na ginástica, em especial pela forma como se deu - acho que não ficarei tão emocionado assim com outra medalha nesses Jogos. Não espero medalha amanhã mas é um dia decisivo para alguns esportes no qual podemos medalhar depois.
