All About the London 2012 Olympics

Ugh! This was so sad to watch.

The clock never started! So Heidemann had more than one second to land the winning touch. At the very least, whether she landed it in time was highly in doubt. The match should have continued into another round, but instead Shin was declared the loser. So South Korea’s coach went to the judges.

Despite the clock issue, they ruled that the touch was good and that Heidemann was the victor. South Korea’s coach went off to file a formal appeal.
And Shin A Lam, now in tears, refused to live the piste (the platform that they fence on). In fencing, leaving the piste means that you have officially accepted the judges’ ruling. And seeing as the clock didn’t start, and she should still have a shot at gold, she sat down. It’s the filibuster of fencing.




After 45 minutes, a judge came out with the ruling that the Korean appeal had been lost and that Shin had to vacate the piste. She didn't.
Shin stood up defiant, resulting in one of the more striking images of these Olympics.
Security came out and took Shin away. The crowd gave her a standing ovation.

Shin went on to lose her bronze medal match.

What's with these Dutch National Field Hockey Team craze?
At least in their good looks, they can really play and live up the hype.
