Sandra Bezic with the commentary..

[Howlin]

This is the proverbial gas on the fire, IMO. It should REALLY heat up now......LOL.

[neutrino]

Give the olympa-scammers what they truly deserve. Ignore them. Don't buy their stuff, don't generate any revenue for them. And then they will fade away, like the tired old con persons they are.

[OKSooner]

Chris, I've been meaning to ax you:

What/who is the character that you attach to your posts, and what is he/she saying?

Thanks.

[Lazamataz]

Didn't the judge SAY they bargained for votes? Why is this guy saying there is nothing here.

Who are you going to believe? This ISU spokesman, or your lying ears?

[mystery-ak]

That's what has been reported...that the French judge bargained for the Ice Dancing competition....

[HamiltonJay]

IOC = WWF

No way, the WWF at least has the integrity to admit from the get go that its rigged.

[Dog]

He just said there will be NO Change...to the results...

It's over!

[Howlin]

Excuse me. I must have had a moment of lucidity. I'll go back in my coma now.

[codebreaker]

Canadians are now asking for an 'independent' Olympic review without Eurotrash.

[DoughtyOne]

I hope you're right. I'm still holding out for Canadian gold on this one.

[Howlin]

The French obviously are use to NOT being questioned about their actions.

[Dog]

That is from the Speed Racer cartoons !

[Howlin]

Oh, personal attacks on reporters. This will do well with the general public!

[Keith]

you can now see why the French and Italians are the king and queen of Surrender monkeys.

[Dog]

I will ping you to something.....

[Howlin]

His basic answer here is "you don't know what you're talking about, go away."

Why did they even BOTHER having this "press conference?"

[Thane_Banquo]

It's cute. The foreigners in the ISU and IOC think this controversy will just go away in a few days. They don't realie they are on American soil, and our press is too persistent to let this scandal die-down. Furthermore, contest-fixing is a crime in the U.S.

Of course, as evidence by the amount of bribery Salt Lake City had to resort to to get the Olympics, it is plane that the IOC is fatally corrupt.

[Howlin]

The French are just so...........damn French!

[codebreaker]

This guy is probably in on the fix, since his country is going to finish 1st in Ice Dancing that hasn't occured yet! (According to the Toronto Globe)

Our friend to the left here is Major Motoko Kusanagi, lead character from Masamune Shirow's manga, "Ghost In the Shell". She works for a black bag outfit called "Section Nine". To find out what she's saying, go to this picture at the "In the Shell" webpage.

Be Seeing You,

Chris
