Toss em out, all of these whiners..
And Pravda tosses in a nice burning Olympic flag into the story page, after their citizens were burning our flag last night during the hockey game.

Their skater shouldn't have cheated. He got caught. The don't think that's fair.
Do we ever need to invite the IOC back to the USA for any reason?

'who had won the 1.5 kilometer race according to all rules'
A clear cut lie since there was something to disqualify him over. It's just foreign media making up stuff to incite hatred toward the US

the Koreans were seriously considering a possibility of withdrawing all of their athletes from the competitions and bidding farewell to America. Don't let the border hit you in the butt on your way out.

I am so sick of these crybabies, do we want them back for the 2012 Summer Games in Washington and New York?
There is talk that the other cities will step down if NYC wins the U.S. bid.

Will anyone miss their presence?

The question is will China and Russia walk out with them?
Putin only said they would be there for the end of competitions and the Russian parliament voted 417-0 to boycott the closing ceremony.

Eventually the Olypics will turn into the World Wrestling Federation. Perhaps be held every two years if they can create enough animosity in that time.

I think we are looking at an even bigger replay of this at the Summer Games.
Can you imagine the howls of protest at a new 100,000 seat 'Freedom Stadium' on the Battery constructed for the Olympic Bid..

Just heard on FOX that every flight out of Salt Lake City is sold out on Monday. Maybe they could leave now so the airport lines won't be so long. Whiners is right!

Take Russia, China and Iran with them.

Does North Korea have a team?
Perhaps the athletes have snuck across the DMZ.

"Eventually the Olypics will turn into the World Wrestling Federation."
Nope. The WWF bills itself as "Sports Entertainment". That's more honest than calling the Olympics "ameteur sports" anymore.
