Right On Man! Exactly!!! What would their reaction be to the Snowboarder's
celebration? 8O
who ever said take the medals away should apologize themselves for being such a stuck up.
they had their dressing room to go into, and they failed
to do that, their mistake.
I've been to so many hockey tournaments over the years I've
lots count long ago.
Women's and Men's hockey, and have never had any celebrations on the ice, or on players benches, always in
the dressing room, with the door closed.
I'm referring to after game celebrations, when the refreshments come out.
I'm say'n the whole thing is overblown & ridiculous. I'm not even sure how this
is even a news story beyond a "Good on ya' all!!!" for the Canadian Woman's
Hockey Team.
It would take a man of DurkaDurka's caliber to even describe the celebration
by the Snowboarders...and we're not hearing anything about that, so...it's a
total non-issue.
I guess you haven't watched Stanley Cup playoffw where the winner drank champagne from the cup center ice...
unreal. When you can go fetch a gold medal for Canada, you're welcome to exercise whatever sense of propriety you want when you celebrate (probably alone). When our athletes step into the spotlight to represent us, it doesn't give us the right to shred them from whatever angle we can get a hold of. Win or lose, they deserve our respect - it takes a hell of a lot more gumption just to make it to the Olys than it does to bash someone else's achievements anonymously on the internet. Our gals did a great job for us. Shut up and celebrate with us, or get the hell outta the way.
The only people who are confused are homosexuals who have been forced to act as heterosexuals by the society. Heterosexuals are never confused, they know perfectly well who they are.
No you won’t, they can’t afford cigars. You will see them walking around smoking cigarettes, more is the pity.
So do you want to use this argument for smoking? Should people be encouraged to smoke if that makes them happy?
You may be right Mowich, all I heard was that some of them were smoking cigars. All the same, I don’t think this sets a good example for teenage girls, these athletes are role models for teenage girls.
If they had to have something ceremonial, why not pass around a bottle of wine?

That is nonsense, JLM. Athletes are in a special position. Rightly or wrongly they are the role models.
If you smoke, you don’t serve as role a model to anybody (except may be to your kids and your grandkids). So other than your immediate family, nobody would really care if you smoked or not.
If teenagers see athletes smoking that may well induce them to take up smoking. That is why athletes must be held to higher standards than anybody else (and not to lower standards as many people do).
Area was closed to the public? Then how did the news get out? Obviously it was not closed enough (like somebody's house or a hotel room).
It was not private enough Risus, if the media was able to get hold of it. These athletes must realize that they are public figures now, they are celebrities and they must act accordingly, in a responsible fashion.
These athletes have got a tremendous boost to their careers. Money, fame, glory etc. But the flip side is that they are role models to millions of teenagers, and they must not behave in a manner which will set a bad example to them.
