Tie Me Kangaroo Down, Sport
 

:confused
Well, you lot down under have caused a great stir here in Canada.

Vancouver, British Columbia is home to the Winter Olympics.

The Oz team have blatantly flown a huge flag on one of the village buildings.

The flag shows a pugilistic 'roo in a fighting stance.

Well, the IOC went ballistic (twits!), demanding that it be taken down.

A backlash reaction resulted in hundreds of flags, national and other, to be draped over balconies, apparently in sympathy with the Oz stance.

Stay tuned for more idiocy from the IOC...in the meantime, a box or two of Tim Tams would, no doubt, calm down the issue.

(Where the hell is the jumping 'roo icon when I need it?) :confused

Good on ya, mates!!!

Boxing Kangaroo
 

Aint it a great Flag! It was invented when we did the Yanks in the America's Cup (Sailing).

Fair dinkum! She's a bloody bewdy!! :thup2:

The Roo flag
 

Let it be known, no canadians sit on the IOC board
Not one person has sided with the IOC including the media :kangaroo
The Vancouver Flag shop is working all night to fill orders for the boxing roo flag.

We should check what military family the IOC comes from, they don't know how to pick their fights and are control freaks

the games will be great in spite of no snow or the IOC
Watch the skier from Ghana
the torch run in smithers was great fun and we will not mind losing to the anz
