Injured Olympic athletes

It seems like today's been rather a bad day for the GB Olympic team - Merrien out, Radcliffe hurt, Sayers hurt, confusion over Idowu.
Does anyone think this is turning into a bit of a mind game between the athletes and the public, to lower the expectations of the public and take the heavy "home medal hopes" tag off the athletes? I don't want to be too cynical but it does seem like people are making sure they have an excuse beforehand, just in case they don't come up with good results! Usain Bolt's maybe been trying the same thing...
