The Americans just threw away a Gold!

[bailey]

Women's snowboard cross final.

American girl way out in the lead and showboated it with a grab off the penultimate jump and lost her edge on the landing leaving the Swiss girl to steam past her and take the Gold.

Couldn't happen to a better country!

 

[lost in london]

The fact she was showboating trying a grab made it even funnier.

I watched it, I just couldn't stopped laughing.

All Yanks deserved to be laughed at?

hhmmm

"Stupid english participant" wouldn't arf make my skin crawl if I read that above a vid.

....unless it was the one of Seaman swatting at a ball dropping into his goal from a 30-yard soft lob.

Still, we lost that one because of the Stupid swedish participant!

Oh I did chortle at that. She later admitted she ballsed it up, but at the time was trying to make out she was correcting her landing.

Save your biggest laughs though for that gobby twat Bode Miller.
The coverage here has been giving it large and Nike have spent a fortune on this knob. He is going for gold in 5 skiing events and is touted [by himself]as the worlds best.
So far in 3 events he has managed to stay up right [as apossed to his usual arse first style] but was too slow and technically crap to live with the Austrians in the downhill.
missed a gate in the slalom, and crashed in the super G.
The Americans have picked up over 50% of their medals in events they made up themselves. All the snowboard stuff and freestyle skiing.

silly girl, at least she admitted it!!

hhmmm

No, but when they showboat and end up on their arse they do! What made it better was the commentator screaming the name of the winner which sounded a lot like FFFRRREEEEEDOOOOOOMMM!!!!

By all means laugh at the person.

What a bunch of wankers the Yanks are, funniest thing I've seen this year

This sums up NSC, a girl gets flash and loses a gold and it means 260 000 000 people in a nation are a bunch of wankers

I can see if now " Arab man gets flash and loses Gold " , what a bunch of wankers the whole Arab world is. I hang about I can't imagaine it as its not allowed to criticise the Arab world just the " yanks " on NSC.

 

[Lord Cornwallis]

Strike 4 for the Bodemiester. No medal in Super G.
PLANK.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Any one of the competitors would have gone for a grab on that jump if they were as far ahead as she was. Why the f*ck not eh?
