Those two morons know less than nothing about competitive shooting. Even less about Olympic air pistol shooting. Go to any "bullseye" style match here in America, or anywhere else in the world for that matter, and most competitors will be dressed just like Yusef. Oh, some will be wearing blinders on their glasses over their non-shooting eye, some will have diopter lenses in front of their shooting eye, but most will be wearing no more than a pair of shooting glasses and either ear plugs or ear muffs. And whatever shirt and pants they just happened to have on that day. These two idiots are trying to instill some level of hype where it simply does not exist.
