Sports Update
Jan. 7th, 2007 07:55 pmBecause, as usual, I have been doing nothing but watching sport. There were winter sports and they were on my TV. How could I resist?
At this point I would like to state my undying love for the following: the French biathlon coaches, Ole Einar Bjordahlen, Lars Berger, who kept smiling after a cursed weekend), the Oberhof organising committee, who managed to keep things flowing smoothly despite having not enough snow and far too much rain, and the Oberhof crowd who, in said pouring rain, never had any umbrellas up for fear of spoiling the view of spectators behind them.
The Russians are back though, and how. They're the only ones who seem to have everything together.
Ski-jumping goes less well, but, I've accepted that the Austrians can't win everything, and at least Schlierensauer won in Bischofhofen, and the Swiss didn't win the overall title.
Formula 1 - Dear Heikki Koivannen, please step outside, without your helmet on because you're paler than Mika and Kimi ever managed. Evidence here - http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/motorsport/formula_one/6175945.stm
I feel kind of sorry for Fisi, he's about to get beaten by yet another beginner. I would love for him to do well, but I don't see it happening.
