$10,000 for Sidney Crosby's missing stick and gloves


There's big bucks in store for the person who can turn in Sidney Crosby's missing hockey gear. Reebok Canada is offering a $10,000 reward, no questions asked, for the return of the stick and glove Crosby used to score his winning goal in last weekend's gold-medal game against the USA.

Hockey Canada says all of the equipment was collected and was being put into the players' bags when it was noticed Crosby's stick and glove were missing

Danish Curler Madeleine Dupont Shows Off Hot Body In Nude Photo

(yes....you can click to enlarge)

A Danish curler was brought to tears after a boisterous Canadian crowd intentionally distracted her during crucial shots in her team's match against Canada. With the crowd stomping and making deafening noise, Denmark skip Madeleine Dupont missed two potentially game-winning shots and tearfully blamed the fans for it afterward. Canada won the match 5-4 in an extra end.
Madeleine is just one of the European Curlers who posed for the Calender 'FIRE ON ICE' with 26 more or less naked women....with this being her take on the pose. "If a picture of me in panties can get more people to watch curling on TV, that's a good thing."
You'll get no argument from me...

"Green Technology" = Fail at Winter Olympics...Zamboni to the rescue!

They’re called “Olympia machines” — electric versions of the old Zambonis — but, like many brilliant “green” ideas, they’re expensive and don’t work:

The electric Zambonis — part of Canada’s attempt at a green Vancouver Olympics — failed multiple times this evening, causing a massive delay in in the middle of the Men’s 500-meter speedskating event.

The Canadian-built electric ice resurfacers used at the Richmond Olympic Oval are supposed to help the environment but it cost the second half of the 500M speedskating pairs after one ice-resurfacing machine couldn’t properly clean the ice. Then a second machine failed. Then they brought in a third and it, too, screwed up the course.
With speeds of up to 40 MPH reached on the ice, the rutted and uneven surface was considered too dangerous to skate on. It was eventually fixed but American Shani Davis, prepping himself for a gold medal run in the 1,000-meter, decided to withdraw.

Three electric Olympia machines were used, and none did the job. Now those things, along with their batteries, will probably end up on a scrap heap somewhere, and the Vancouver Olympics organizers are airlifting in a good ol’ gas-powered Zamboni from Calgary so there are no more long delays at the rink. “Carbon neutral” baby..... I can feel it getting warmer outside already.

Yeah, let’s put the greenies in charge of the whole world!

Worst dressed Olympians...the Norwegian Curlers

The Norwegian curling team drew some curious looks from onlookers when they showed up for a training session on Sunday wearing pants purchased from Loudmouth Golf, the very same California-based company that outfits John Daly with his retina-scorching trousers.

The Norwegian team originally planned to wear the outfit for training, but considering the rock star status that curlers have in Vancouver... it might become permanent.

Personally, I think they're awesome. I see no problem with curlers bringing a little style, or lack of it.... to game.

My only concern is that the pants might have some sort of negative John Daley psychological impact on the curlers. The last thing these Norwegians need is to develop an addiction to white trash women, Diet Coke and Marlboros.

Lindsey Vonn poses for Sports Illustrated's swimsuit issue

The Minnesota kid from Apple Valley is making a big splash for her provocative photos in Sports Illustrated.....but this mornings announcement that she can't even get her ski boots on because of a training injury last week....and those photos might be all she ends up with from this Olympics.

I tried my best to ignore this because I hate the Olympics, (except for hockey) but even I have to admit this Lindey Vonn SI Cover controversy kind of caught me off guard. Seriously what am I missing here?.... because for the life of me I can’t figure out what the feminists and skiers are upset about here.

Not to mention the fact that 99% of the country has no idea who this chick is. If you want people to get to know her then you need them to be able to recognize her. NEWSFLASH...... nobody gives a rip about skiing.

More people will be interested now in watching her after seeing her face, rather than seeing her on TV with her helmet on. C'mon it’s a known fact that Americans don’t root for ugly chicks.
Head over to Sports Illustrated for all 45 shots.

The 2010 Girls of Ryanair Calendar

The low cost Irish airline Ryanair gives the word "take-off" new meaning with its racy annual 2010 "Girls of Ryanair Calendar, for about $15 via ryanaircalendar.com.

The girls do a good job, but Ukrainian airline Wind Rose has stolen their idea, and made their own calendar with much hotter chicks......pictured here.

About 800 of the 4,000 employees "volunteered" to put forth their sexiest poses to be among "the girls of Ryanair." All sales benefit a children's nonprofit, so if your wife gets angry, say it's for charity.
