[Fair Go]

Even a banana bender has won gold at the winter olympics.

[Oztrich Boy]

A better indicator would be how well Australia and Canada did respectively at the recent Winter Olympic games,

And exactly how amy of the Winter Olympic events had their origin in the Ancient Olympics?

Running, Swimming, Javelin, Shot Put. Wrestling, Weightlifting - warrior skills
Curling - Ice hockey arena janitor skills

We only send our 3rd rate athletes to the meaningless "Commonwealth" (which in itself is meaningless) games.

I suspect that, medals winners or not, every one of your commonwealth games athletes are absolutely first rate. Looks to me like the support they get from other Canadians is what's third rate based on your comment.

Sure the Commonwealth games are fairly insignificant on the world stage but I doubt that there is one single Australian that would deride our athletes as you have done yours.

I didn't deride our athletes.
We sent our best 3rd string team. It's good training for
them - sorta like a good high school meet, but
we kept our best at home training for real competitions..

[Piefloater]

we kept our best at home training for real competitions

LOL

Must have kept your best at home for the 2004 Athens Olympics as well. You just nudged out Turkey for 21st place on the medal count with 3 Gold, 6 Silver & 3 Bronze.

Perhaps that not a big enough event for you either? Holding your best back for the next intergalactic games perhaps?

[Aussie Dasher]

Those same "some" might also be prize wankers!

[Aussie Dasher]

I had a go at the Poms last week. This week it's the Canadians being dopey...

[Aussie Dasher]

Good question!!!!!!

[Aussie Dasher]

The first bit is a new one on me. In my experience, "having a beer" invariably involves drinking beer. Nothing else.

"P*ss" is, however, a term used to describe grog.

[Aussie Dasher]

Probably having a bad day watching the Commonwealth Games eh?

Australia: 57 golds, 51 silvers, 45 bronzes.
Canada: 14 golds, 22 silvers, 17 bronzes


LOL!!!! ROTFL!!!!

[GMMAC]

Seemingly it hasn't dawned on you that, pretty much by definition, caring a rat's hindquarters about the so-called "Commonwealth Games" goes hand-in-hand with a deep-set colonial mentality.

Using its television ratings as a fair indicator, it's quite apparent they generate little or no interest in the Northern Hemisphere other than, as one might expect, within the one-time "mother country".

It's results are akin to whatever national standings resulted from the "Special Olympics": as in, who cares?
It's also not unlike the Special Olympics - which at least has an obvious excuse - in the ridiculous number of medals being doled out.

[Fair Go]

Strange how the "Globe and Mail" carries lead reports when Canada wins a gold medal. Then if cleanskin beer offends...

[Aussie Dasher]

A bad loser AND discriminatory against people with disabilities. What a cheery life you must lead...

[philetus]

But they relented after Ms Bailey flew to the UK (with a suitcase full of money?) and lobbed on their doorstep to argue the case.

[Fair Go]

You'll have to do better than that!!!!!!!

[philetus]

You'll have to do better than that!!!!!!!"

They did send MS Baily and she lobbed on their doorstep.

[Fair Go]

And Ms Baily probably made her presence felt by having a pommy shower after her long flight from Australia!

[Fair Go]

At least you haven't suggested that she showed them the map of Tasmania!

To tell the truth, I didn't even know the Games were on until I read this thread.

For the life of me I don't see why you would want to bring up the Commonwealth Games....

New Zealand: 4 Golds, 5 Silver, 12 Bronze

Too bad sheep humping isn't an event
