BAM! Another gold medal!Originally Posted by Daddelvirks
1000m Ladies speedskating.
Tonight the skeleton tournament. Watch Akwasi Krimpong, Ghana. He has a Dutch passport as well but the Dutch Olympic committee wouldn't endorse his plan to become the first Dutch athlete on the skeleton piste. So he went to the US, found a place to train in the Rocky Mountains with a US coach and is now, on his own, Team Ghana.
His chances for a medal are very, very small. But like Eddy the Eagle in days past, Akwasi deserves our respect!
