The question is not about if I am fool or not.
It's a very simple question. Both Ramayan and Mahabarath talk about the best Archers the world has ever seen.
But, when was India won a gold in Olympics in Archery?
With so much (supposed) culture and bravery behind it's history, how could no Indian can compete against world's best sportsmen? Why can't they have guts and passion to compete?

Nana,
why no answer?
I will tell you the answer. Indians can go fight the week and minority. but they never attempt to fight against big dogs like China or USA or even South Korea who has the best Archer. So much braggin about culture and bravery when half the people can't find 3 quare meals a day.

we guys are only fit to Brag about some thing that might (or not ) happend 17 thousand ago.ha!ha!ha!

ThoondiKaaran suprisingly ur name has kaaran in it another great Archer.We had great Archer in the past it does mean we have them now.I have heard so many tamiian proud of chola kings to have expanded the empire till south east ASia.While we were number number one in both
ground fight(with sword ofcourse)and navy,hope you know the KUTTUMARAN ships(i.e the katmarines)are best designe ships,So the question is why we are not the top most today?
Can you answer this?

Even today, the some of the best Atheletes from India are from Chozha (Tamil nadu) or Chera (Kerala) empire. Our golden girl PT Usha was originally from Kerala and got trained in Tamilnadu.

We don't say Chozhas are best in the world like Mahabarath and Ramayan says. The History says that they defeated small empires through out India and middle east and annexed them. Go read history

not middle east but south east Asia. Even now, India is trying to win over SAARC just like the Chozhas did
