if long distance spitting ever becomes an olympic sport, Totti has a good chance of winning gold
i was really hoping that the canadian women's team would make it, but mexico defeated them in the qualifiers.
i really hate the canadian oplympic commitee...
they will only give money to teams or people they think have a really good chance at getting a medal.
so soccer in canada (although tons and tons of people play it here, more than hockey believe it or not) they get hardly any money, yet bob sled people get tons. how many bob sledders are there in canada? not a hell of a lot. does this fairly represent people's interests, or does it represent greed for a medal count.
i wish they would stop focussing on medals, and focus on just competing against the rest of the world in a great event like the olympics. to me the olympics are about trying your best and not about getting medals.
