Some Olympian acts of Sportmanship

  1. The Canadians congratulating Pinsent et al after their win yesterday, how gutting must it be to be a rower during the Pinsent / Redgrave era…

  2. The Dutch girl in the heptathlon congratulating and hugging Kelly Sotherton on her PB in the high jump, that was just kinda cool.

  3. Pinsent as one 4 time gold medallist presenting a fourth to the German this morning, how cool is that, win a gold yesterday, present one today…

  4. The Russian gymnast going straight to Carly Peterson to say well done…

Anyway, I thought that those were awesome moments…

…and not to mention the Polish swimmer who won the 200m butterfly auctioning off her gold medal raising money for the Leukemia Foundation. She will keep her silver and bronze she won in other events. That is the true spirit of the Olypics!

Not to mention Carolina Kluft inviting all the women to take a victory lap with her after winning the womens heptathlon gold.
