But, What a shame! You do not see the Live of the future. It's relly "Too cold So warm". But, you may look for the live link in other countries. Good luck for you!

Okay. I'm confusing myself. I'm looking at the results page and it says Germany 1st Korea 2nd Canada 3rd China 4th PEN
So who won the Men's Relay?

I see USA Ladies won their relay.

I'm very sorry! I have to say on the forum again. Because I am so sad. very, very... The Men relay final's competition was so intense. Than the women's competition was also intense. My heart was so quick to jump! South Korean skater so fast! Our skaters are so hard, so fight, then the death-defying first crossed the finish line. We too would like to victory! Six stops of world cup, we all did not have medals! Four Penalty! Two Fell! There is also a foul in the Asian Winter Games! We did not even win once! Crossed the finish line first, What is the role! The referee has his reason. Not because I am a Chinese person. I do not want to quibble. Everyone has everyone's (Not every country) point of view. If you have the video, you see it! China always accepted these facts, we respected these referees because the outcome can not be changed. Wang Meng has said:" I can not let the others skaters catch up! I do not give referees any opportunities!" If you do not want to be fouled, You must be absolutely clean! But they do not malicious to hurt anyone, really! China team can afford the lose it! What a real honor we want! Chinese short track speed skating team is so united, the power of indestructible should be cherished more than any medals! Sorry to say so many words.

Dose, I'm sorry your team didn't win. You're right skating a clean race and having your country's team be united and knowing that they give it their all (100%) is better than any medals. Their hard work will pay off.

Thanks for the video link, Gasp - that was a wild one, eh? On another note: Did anyone else notice that the Hamelin brothers weren't in Dresden?

and here's how the Canadians summed up their World Cup season. Pay special note to the 2nd paragraph!
This puts an end to a very successful season of World Cup racing for Canada in this post-olympic year. While some experience skaters sat out some of the World Cup stops and younger athletes got their first chance to gain valuable international experience, Canada still comes out with a total of 41 medals – 13 gold, 11 silver and 17 bronze, and two World Cup Titles, that of Marianne St-Gelais in the 500m and the men’s relay.
Speed Skating Canada top sponsor, Intact Insurance, had committed at the start of the season to give a $1000 grant to a club each time a Canadian skater would step on the podium at the World Cup level, so thanks to our short track speed skaters, 41 clubs spread across Canada will be receiving some much needed help.
NOW that's a nice way to insure that the ST clubs in Canada stay vested in the training of the up-and-coming teams.
Okay--somebody who is quick with the medal counts, if an American company did this, what would their donation be?

I cheated - I looked at the scroller on Rocker-U.net, where I keep up with all podium appearances... If you count each individual in the relays who medaled, our total would be - 52! As for the Hamelins, a sore tush may be true for Charles, but what about Francois? Sympathy pains? Re: The sore tush - as a snowboarder, I can relate to a bruised tailbone. You can't splint or cast it, it hurts like h***, and you sure don't want to land on it a second time...
