I laughed at most of that scene ^ Except the part with Michael Buble and the stripper Mounties. That was just plain disrespectful, not even funny. I hated Buble before and now I hate him even more.

hes 30 or 31 i think and hes been raping forever on his own label, puts on one of the best live shows you'll ever see. Hes a ton better than most rappers out there, never once heard him rap about being gangster or slanging drugs, he just raps about his life growing up, trying to make it in rap and having fun.ruisleipa wrote:
catchy song but seriously tho "still doing rap like it was the 90s" wtf he looks about ten years old. He must have been in diapers in the 90s. And enough with the 'mic 1,2 check mic 1,2' bullshit.Andoura wrote:
I'm not sure if I really liked the closing show... Seems like it was for kids at a certain moment.
And I'm disappointed that Classified was not at the show performing this song:

Other than that, not bad.

Don't forget drinking. Of course, that would be like competing against the East German women's weightlifting team...CameronPoe wrote:

If I recall correctly, the IOC said Canada "won" by having the most gold medals.
I've read more than once in this thread that the IOC does not officially support a system. I was just quoting a Canadian..

So you'd rather have 6 silvers and 6 bronzes than 10 golds?
You'de rather have 4 golds than 3 golds 10 silvers and 15 bronze?DefCon-17 wrote:

Tis why I like the weighted point system. It makes the most sense. But again.. I was addressing "Only Americans care about the medal count" .. which clearly is not the case.
Lets be honest though.. we should all be pointing at the Russians and laughing.. srsly wtf.

tbh I'd rather have 14 1st places than a bunch of second and third places. The whole point of the games is to WIN your event, not get a consolation prize. But as Kmar pointed out, lol @ the ruskies
This is true if you won absolutely no gold. The Canadian rally cry should have been "Gold Baby!".. or some other gay punchline. Not "Own the Podium".CanadianLoser wrote:

Like I said before Vancouver was beautiful.. and they did a great job, minus a broken penis shaped statue. They can't be blamed for their on again off again weather .
Now you can go back to serving alcohol at regular hours.

Also, I hope Ohno or whatever his name is gets disciplined for his "Canadian judges suck, they kicked me out for no reason, etc" whining. What a sore loser.
Ya but if it (Gold Baby) were the official platform you better believe it would be tattooed on every Canadians arm.Winston_Churchill wrote:

Is that what he said excatly? In all honesty Hamelin's hand on the Korean was just as blatant if not more..and they didn't even look at it.. Ohno also said, that is all part of short track.
I've come to note that there are a lot of Olympic athletes that are full of themselves. Not just Americans.

He said, paraphrasing from what I remember, that the only reason he got kicked out is because the Canadians were the referees on that event. I never saw Hamelin's hand, but it was such a crazy crash. Ohno hits Korean and Hamelin and Korean hits our other guy. Such a mess.
Regardless, you don't accuse the referees of cheating or giving a home advantage. He knocked people over, it was his fault. Pretty simple.
