Olympic Pairs - WE WERE ROBBED - Click HERE for Original Thread

Marximus
Canada was completely robbed.  In pairs.  We skate perfectly, the russians goofed up 4 time.  And we still lost.

I can't believe the politics involved.

i know!!! i honestly thought canadians were going to get the gold. so disappointing. <!--emo&:(--><img src="http://asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('><!--endemo-->

Agreed.. the judges look more at the country than they do at the actual skating.  Very sad.  I feel all judged events in the Olympics are very biased.

Scintillater
Well...now...justice was served....sort of?  Feel kinda bad how the Russian pair whom I'm sure wanted to win purely for their merits, are now looked upon as cheaters, when it probably wasn't even THEM who caused the judges to be biased.

Bimmer
Anyone think that korean should have got disqualified in the speed skating?  It didn't look like much of a "block" to me, but oh well, I hear there's a inquiry after the games anyways <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->
