Title: Will the Aussies ever show????
Post by: videoholic on February 15, 2002, 11:19:31 AM: I\'m just sitting back waiting for an Australian to win a medal. You cats think it will happen?

Too bad they don\'t have a naked shower wrestling event. Maybe the summer games one day....

Now that I look at it it could be a race between the US and Germany.

Post by: Coredweller on February 16, 2002, 11:03:20 PM: Yeah, that dumb little Korean pointdexter-looking guy didn\'t have to put his right arm out and drag Apolo down like that. Why did the Korean fall down anyway? I didn\'t see anyone push him down.

I guess you Aussies can feel proud now, you\'ve won your gold metal by other\'s misfortune.

Post by: IronFist on February 16, 2002, 11:19:08 PM: Ha ha ha. That was the biggest fluke in Olypic history! The only reason the Aussie even made it to the finals is because 3 people fell down right before the finish line in the semi final race. Then the only reason he won the finals is because he was a quarter lap behind everyone else! Without a doubt that should have been a re-race. :( Oh well though. Apolo can still dominate in the next three races (and you know he will! :D)

Post by: ROL Jamas on February 17, 2002, 09:50:20 AM: Well, it\'s one thing that Apollo and everybody else fell down, but the fact that the Aussie acted like he was great after he crossed the finish line pissed me off. He shouldn\'t have had a chance in hell during qualifying, and yet somehow he wins gold. The tainted Olympic Triumph, bleh.

Apollo still got silver, and he\'s probably going to medal in his last 3 events, so this isn\'t like the end of this guy\'s Olympic try. He\'ll win one gold at least, so Silver is just fine.

See Yuz.

Post by: IronFist on February 17, 2002, 12:20:16 PM: In the interview with Apollo after the race, he was extremely happy that he had won a silver. I was actually pretty surprised. I thought he would either be in tears or loading his gun getting ready to take some people out. ;) Heh.

Post by: ROL Jamas on February 17, 2002, 12:29:44 PM: Heh, yeah, I saw that. At least he wasn\'t pulling another Sale/Pelettier afterwards for the IOC to deal with yet again. He\'ll be back, and 3 golds are pretty damn good, too :)

See Yuz.

OMG, you are telling ME to SUCK IT???? WTF is that all about...???

Your speed skater came in LAST PLACE in TWO RACES.

Through disqualifications and last lap wrecks, your dude was handed a gold medal.

YOU KNOW WHY HE WON GOLD????

He was so far in last place that the wreck that whiped out all 4 of the other racers didn\'t even effect him.

And he is the first gold medalist for Australia. hehehehe.
