Nothing seems to go like it "should" go...(Olympic update nr 28)


It seems that the best thing to do was cheering for Shani Davis all the time. He probably would have had the luck the Dutch and all my other favourites had the last two weeks.... And it is not only working for speedskating, it also counts for ski jumping, figure skating.... It makes it all a bit less fun.... but I still think the Olympics are one of the best events, together with the World and European Championships soccer, the tour de France and Roland Garros/Wimbledon.....
And when we are talking about figure skating....Sarah Cohen did fall twice, and still she gets an hiher rank then Irina Sluskaya.... I really thought she had a dance worth silver..... But who am I?

The only thing...why are allthis show snowboard thing an Olympic sports, and why is skeeleren not an past of the summer games? Besides that it would makes sence if you see how many people are active in this part of the sport, it would really help the Dutch skaters....

Well, we cross our fingers for this evening and although it seems to bring a lot of bad luck I will cross my finger for the Dutch...

PS: has anybody a book and about Voodoo?
