— Here’s a humble prediction: in the Olympic short-track speedskating competition tonight, one or more Korean skaters will crash, taking one or more American skaters down with him. Kim Dong-sung will not be the Krashing Korean Kamikaze;
the role of hitman will fall on a junior member of the team, probably Ahn Hyun-Soo who has already crashed twice in two races (he’s the guy who took Ohno out in the 1000m, causing his injury.)
Special bonus prediction: if Korea doesn’t get a gold medal, their coach will have a press conference and whine, and his countrymen will launch a denial-of-service attack on a randomly selected Web server believed to be in the United States.
Update: Korea was DQ’d in the relay for impeding.
