 Poster: A snowHead
|
About 20 skiers from the sport's underdog countries wore black armbands during a World Cup race yesterday in Val d'Isere to protest against the FIS. The racers were unhappy at having to take part in a qualifying event on the fringes of Val d'Isere to earn a place in the men's giant slalom scheduled for today....It was the second championships at which lower-ranked skiers have had to pre-qualify in a separate race run on a different piste from the main events.

They were only wearing black armbands? Where/When is the women's qualifier?

You're right. The last finisher scored more than 600 points! There are lots of people who post here who could have beaten that by a very wide margin!

If you choose to watch paint dry on TV no blame should be attached to those who do the brushing.

But this competition is for artists, not your local painter and decorator!

"... yes, he doesn't like the flags. Slightly the wrong shades of red and blue apparently. Now what's this? He's looking down at his boots... they seem to have exploded! This is indeed a travesty for the veteran norf Londoner"

I'm just a bit confused.... w.t.f does that mean? I've never painted my tv before, and if I did I would certainly use either a spray gun or a roller...
