If it weren't for the Croatians, who beat the Brits 3-2, the Russian football team would have been disqualified from Euro 2008 Championship.
And if it weren't for Henry's gaffe, who mispronounced some words from the Croatian National Anthem, the Croatians might not have gotten "their luck of the Irish" to the detriment of the Brits.
In my view, this kinda luck, obviates any need for virtuosity or training. All one needs is sheer and mere luck.
Athletes safety has always intrigued me with javelins flying during sports' tournaments, and tada what I have feared took place recently in Rome during Golden League Competitions.
A javelin thrown by the Finnish Tero Pitkämäki, jabbed the French Salim Sdiri in the right side of his torso, inflicting minor injuries, but yet it is a serious incident that necessitates implementation of serious organizational and construction changes.
Quick recovery Salim!
Vladimir Putin's visit to Guatemala augured well for the beautiful resort of Sochi. Putin's speech, both in English and French while presenting the city's candidacy to the IOC, was very impressive if compared with the Korean counterpart.
I am extremely happy as this will be the first time Russia hosts Winter Olympics. Better start planning that trip already.
Hard luck South Korea.
УУУУУРРРРРРРРАААААААА!!!!!!!
didn't get to get to the semifinals, and now failed to get the bronze. the Czechs beat us and got the broze, left Torino empty-handed
I am so disappointed with the Russian ice hockey team. Don't know what to blame? coaching? morale?
My speculation is that in Toronto 2010, Russians will have a better younger and more experienced players.
I lost my voice, I lost my hope, coz Russia lost today in its ice hockey game in the semifinals to the Fins:(
despite my sincere cheering and rooting, my home team lost!!!
two of the players were penalized, third one had a fractured finger, and the rest malnutritioned (or so they looked to me) how could we possibly win? on the other hand, the Fins had a great defensive tactic.
I'll wear brighter colors tomorrow hoping we will beat the Czechs
