I'm blaming them...

Thanks. I thought was a low penalty for him. The original report has been corrected to 8 years now too I see.

I've have thought he would be banned for longer than 8 months. 8 years seems fair.

Ha! Her partner was her brother, I guessed that in the 50s if a woman sat on top of a man in public he'd either be her brother or husband

The problem with aerials / big air is when you mess up, come down vertically and land on your neck. I hate to say this but i fully expect someone to be paralysed or suffer a severe brain injury between now and the Olympic final. The bigger the prize, the more risks are taken. I quite like the idea of head to head 100m races. 32 skaters. Round 1, last 16. QF. SF. final. BTW "Ice cross downhill" = Red Bull sponsored Crashed Ice events

Great Britain may well accept the Olympic places for men now. Decision next week

That moment when you get thrown from the bob. get out of the way while it slides back up the track again and then overtakes you for a second time. Germany.

China will be very low on this list. Mainly because it seems impossible to translate the information that is available at http://www.chinada.cn/ from Chinese...
