I can't tell what you mean. Does that mean you actually liked her comment, and you thought it was good sportsmanship? Or did you really not care for her comment?

sorry.. I was being sarcastic. to my mind that was a petty comment that showed she was more interested in medals than actually the sportsmanship of taking part.

The most dutch people are mad about sports, and we also enjoyed the super bowl final on dutch TV.
But we also have respect for other countries and there on sports(man). When the dutch fans in the skate arena sheer the do it also for sporters from other country's because we love the sport and there spectators.
By the way, we also do on soccer and we have one of the best teams in the world, but we never win the world titel, perhaps this year. -

Just been watching the Olympic men's dowhill. Apparently one team employ a guy who's sole function is to stand behind their skiers at the start and shout encouraging phrases - "You're the man" "Go get'em boy" etc
I can't decide, is that a bit mad ? or just rather sad ?
-
Maybe they're mad cuz they found out they're Dutch.
-
Why would we be mad because we are Dutch? I'm proud to be Dutch. We have a rich History and great social benefit system. We are the ones who founded NY and most americans are decendents from the Dutch. I agree that the 10 km speedskating can be boring but speedskating is a sport the Dutch practice for a long time ( since 1225 )so we are very proud of our sport
