aideWhy do we suck at sports?! FUCK. Adam van Koerverden, you DOUCHE. You had the 1000m in the bag! What the fuck happened? You better whip it out and show them whose boss in the 500m. akdjfadkfjadlkfjdfasd I really want to just curl up and cry now.
"Canada's Adam van Koeverden was a bit disappointing in the final, placing eighth. He managed a second place in the first 500 meters, but was overrun after 750 meters. The 26-year-old took six medals in the 2008 ICF World Cup series, including two from K1 1000m race. He will have to do his best in the K1 500m final on August 23 to prove his dominance in this competition."

The Olympics are something else? Not all of them are Michael Phelps ... Watching the US relay teams ALL drop the baton was just mind-crushing. It's a fucking baton!
