Huffingtonpost.com - Sven Kramer lost the gold medal Tuesday when coach Gerard Kemkers sent him the wrong way on a changeover during the 25 laps of the 10,000-meter speedskating race – a mistake so elementary, it defies belief. "It is a disastrous error," said Kemkers, still in shock because his faulty instructions had Kramer disqualified and moved Lee Seung-hoon of South Korea from silver to gold. "This is unprecedented in an Olympic Games," said U.S. coach Derek Parra. Kramer had not lost a 10,000 in three years, making him the prohibitive favorite to win – until the inexplicable happened. Every lap, a skater moves from the outside lane to the inside lane, or vice versa, for a changeover to make sure everybody skates the same distance. "Sometimes you're coming out and looking for good ice, you might go either tight on the track or wide on the track to get better ice. And it's at that time you think – 'OK, where did I just come from?'"
After wearing out his media welcome, "The Disaster from Denmark", Sven Kramer, decided he wasn't done being the biggest a-hole in the world and confirmed the fact that the Dutch are the Gold Medal winners for Douchery. Just serves him right. Guy was pissed nobody knew his name when he won the 10,000m and now he can be certain nobody will forget his dumbass after being DQ'ed for switching into the wrong lane. Classic. But on a more positive note this has to be good for my reality show idea where Sven moves in with Bruce Jenner and learns how to live life after Olympic fame. In the pilot episode Kris Kardasian surgically removes Sven's balls and puts them on the mantle next to Bruce's. This could totally save NBC after they lost 200 million broadcasting fuckin ice dancing.
