Well it will be fun for you because I feel sure the Lions will win. Is this one of those situations when we bet on which of teams is sure to lose?Rusty wrote:and the Lions play in Green Bay next week - how fun will that game be?fluffy wrote:[sarcasm] How did you like those Green Bay Packers?

sounds like it. Since the Lions haven't won in Green Bay since 1991, I bet they'll find a way to lose. They should have won last year, but blew it (as usual).fluffy wrote:

So is that a yes or a no?
So get this, yesterday they had the Skeleton race which is basically the luge
face first so essentially the people are racing down the luge course , face first on a sled that looks like a cookie sheet at about 77 M.P.H. and the US dude had a history of depression, alcoholism and tourettes syndrome. They anounced his bio right as he pushed off. Sadly, he didn't medal.
All I could think about was his meeting with the therapist where the Doctor finally says," Oh man, do I have the sport for you!"

thats a not sure why your asking permission.
Why would you let a guy like that go face first downa a slide?
the first black guy to win a gold.... he seems like a dick if you havent seen it he won the long track in speed skating and when interviewed he was just....well he was a dick to the lady interviewing her, he also just dumped the us team and they lost.

He seemed okay in a later interview, but he did seem like a real jerk when the lady first interviewed him.Psychotic_Carp wrote:thats a not sure why your asking permission.

I got the impression he was angry about something. But I do have to say there is no love lost between members of the US skating team! I mean, they're all in it for themselves and I guess, I'm no one to judge that.
It was a last minute decision for him to pull out of the relay so he'd be fresh to win the gold, which he did...in reality, with the exception of that relay, I don't see speed skating as very much of a team sport.

Joey Cheek got the silver and donated the $15000 to charity, just like he'd done wit the $25000 he got for an earlier gold medal. Chedrik, the guy who was hoping to win 5 golds, finished 6th and spent a lot of time sniping at Davis for not skating in the team pursuit. The US didn't qualify for the finals in the pursuit.Psychotic_Carp wrote:The other guys seems to be for the team and , I cant rember his name, but the guy who they expected not to win jack in that same race did the team and won the bronze in that race.
