Here's a little joke that one Russian just published on the Russian forum and guys imediately translated a piece of it to English. The Swedish team submitted a complain about the results of the hockey match with Belarus. The Swedish team states that they were leading the match and that Belarus won by accident. Due to this fact, the ISU made a decision about some changes in the judgement of hockey games. From now on the results of the games will be decided not only on the number of goals scored, but also on the points of 14 judges, which will evaluate hockey players on a 10 point system. ISU has already decided on some criteria of evaluation for the judges: 1. The design of sport clothes and of the equipment 2. The techniques, speed and artistry of the skating (in particular, the highest points are given to the team, the players of which perform at least two triple tulups in one game) 3. Feints with sticks and ears 4. Synchronous and beautiful team changes 5. Spectacular fallings on the ice (the number of somersaults etc.) 6. To which part of the gates the puck got 7. The spectacular effects and efficiency of fights on the ice 8. The number of pucks sent to the stand for spectaculars 9. Personal charm and nationality of the players Other criteria are to be decided by the ISU immediately before each game depending on the international political circumstances. The Olympic Committee of Sweden sent in a complain about the results of the hockey match between Sweden and Belarus. The main reason of complains is the fact, that the final puck of the Belorussian player aimed at the head of the goalkeeper. ISU can make the decision of accepting both teams to the semi-finals. According to the information, Canadian figure skaters did not stop on what they have achieved. After winning the new law case, they automatically classified to the final of hockey games, where they will play with the Canadian hockey team. Both teams will be awarded golden medals. Referring to the scandal with the disqualification of the Russian women skiing team we propose to award them a set of medals. Since it is unclear, which place they would take, they should be awarded ALL sets of medals – golden, silver and bronze! 15 minutes before the start of the hockey match Russia-USA the team of Russia was disqualified, because the sharpening of Pavel Bure skates did not comply with the norms. At the same time, Slutskaya was disqualified for the same reason. In the hockey semi-finals the team of Belarus will play with Canadian figure skating couple, since these are unbeatable. The Russian hockey team wins gold in the Olympic games. The actions that can be taken by Americans: 1. Disqualify the Russian team because Russia violates human rights in Chechenya. 2. After the hockey match, the stick of Khabibulin (goalkeeper) is checked. It turns out that there is a lack of three centimetres of isolation tape, so the match should be replayed. At the same time, the Russian team has to play without the goalkeeper. P.S. By the way, don't take as an offence what they wrote about Swedish hokkey team. At first I didn't write it. Secondly the point is to laugh at American way of judging. It's just a piece of what they wrote. Further, they mentioned Koreans and other teams that were injustly disqualified etc. 1st Reply A.T.L.
