It looks like you are a prophet. NBC reporting that documents have been uncovered showing He Kexin is really just 14 (big surprise). IOC is looking into this.

Just to make sure his ego stays earth bound, he diud say it would not happen while the IOC was on chinese soil, so it wasn't ALL correct.

Now that UtahDan is a prophet, can he please clear up the Prop 8 stuff? Thanks.

Obvioulsy he's only a minor prophet, with stewardship over sports about which people only care every four years.

UD, any vibes on curling in 2010?

Not so fast. Check out this article:

http://deseretnews.com/article/1,5143,700253158,00.html

Looks to me like the IOC is not really doing an "investigation". They are just hoping to sweep this under the rug as quickly as possible. Relying completely on the Chinese to simply provide more documentation. How difficult would that be?

Utahdan is very naive. put he puts on this bad-ass act, so it's actually kind of refreshing to see him be the naive idealist once in a while.

Am I a bad person for feeling happy that the Chinese might lose their gold medals?

Agreed. It's the host nation. And the Chinese are just spiteful enough that we could see the slaughter of thousands of Tibetans if the Chinese lost gold medals.
