I was going to publish a reaction to the recent IOC "furor" over the Women's Ice Hockey Gold Medal celebration, but SI does it for me:
The Olympic champs were still wearing their gold medals — but they were also holding beers, champagne bottles and stogies, and taking tons of pictures. I cut off my live blog of the game at the medal ceremony, and started a new post on the Molson Party, which is the most authentically cool celebration I’ve seen at these Games.
And to what-ever beuracrats, hypocrites or busy-bodies are put off by the supposed "poor sportsmanship" or *gasp* the shocking evils of an 18 year old drinking champagne...kindly go f*** yourselves.
Christ. Of all the stupid bullshit to worry about.
