...I fear any capital I may have gained from my association with a certain member of this team has been seriously undermined by the shocking hedonistic spectacle of what can only be described as some sort of modern day Bacchanalian orgy on ice.
That sort of thing may well be acceptable out there in "liberal" BC - but not here, not in these parts buddy! Shame on them!

Re: Iced Hockey...
That's appalling, these athletes should be setting our young people who look up to them, an example. They appear to be making drinking alcohol and smoking seem cool to the kids. What next, doing lines of charlie off their medals? The sooner they pull the ladies ice hockey from the Olympics the better.

Re: Iced Hockey...
Yes, you are right - but I did find that a couple of the weaker teams did play better than they did during the world championships.....
Im ever hopeful steve - you know me, a true and ever faithful womens hockey fan - katie my five year old daughter plays hockey.....and I wouldnt have it any other way.....

It would be too bad to have the sport dropped from Olympic competition after all it was only introduced in 1998.

The arena was empty the only people around were a few press and the clean-up crews.
However I do feel your pain. The possibility of all that capital, poof gone.

Re: Iced Hockey...
I agree with your sentiments about setting an example for younger athletes but that is not the way today in professional sport. There are few, if any, sports not tainted by athletes being exposed for taking drugs, excessive drinking, sexual activity, etc, etc, or a combination thereof.
It's not like it happened in front of 15,000 fans.

I want nothing more to do with these trollops! My wife and myself have our reputation to think of.
Look, they can hardly stand they're so sh!t-faced - as you said earlier, what sort of example is this for the kiddies?

Re: Iced Hockey...
All hyperbole aside, this is the worst display I ever seen in athletics, I for one won't be buying any Canadian Savings Bonds if this is the type of behavior it encourages, and I encourage you to all to do the same.
