Hopefully there won't be a face off in the corner.

He was probably just there to lend a hand.

Until it was discovered he was unarmed.

Was he kicked off the relay team for losing the last leg?

better hope that they keep everyone away from the hot tub. I'd hate to have to clean that mess up...

Why is this even news? It's not highly contagious, it's curable, and very rare...THe common cold should make headlines.

Suddenly the feet that wash up on the BC coast make way more sense.

I've heard of crumbling under the Olympic pressure, but this is ridiculous.

Not to mention he is a cruise ship employee who is not even a Canadian citizen.

After the luger got killed, Europe's spin on the games turned negative and this type of stuff is making major headlines with a lot of news agencies now. If it is negative and related to the Vancouver games it will get you read.

I was also in Torino in '06 and their OC never even finished construction of the athlete's village(including washrooms) although they promised the IOC and athletes it would be done every day. I don't think it even made the news. Make no mistake Euro-trash nations look out for each other and are looking to take us colonials down a peg. To many of them we are uncultured boors who can't do anything properly on our own.

It kind of reminds me of the hatred I see posted on other NHL boards (like TSN for example) towards Flames and their fans...heck I thought everyone loved the Flames ;-)

When you peel back the layers of this story you soon realize it's just a bloody mess.
