Sports pic of the day

No, that’s not the Pope. It’s not even someone dressed up as the Pope. That’s a fan of the Austrian ski team. I have no idea what the hat represents and frankly, I’m not even sure I care enough to look it up.

There seems to be a fine line between national pride and mentally deranged during these Olympics. Just yesterday, John Shuster had his wikipedia face defaced because of his massive choke job in Curling.

Yea, I said Curling. A sport that’s only popular north of the 38th parallel. In fact, I’d bet if the commentators didn’t make Shuster out to be Bill Buckner, nobody would have even known he screwed up.

Please, spare me the one Curling aficionado that is bound to leave a comment. Most of you thought Curling was really just shuffleboard on ice.
