Sportsnetwork, do you have the 4x10 km relay Sapporo World Championship?

Northug made a big attack in that race, it would have been nice to see, with english commentators! :-)

Very Nice video btw, Thanks!!!

Why do people complain about the way he sais Northug? It's better than most americans would do it, and it is actually quite good (even though it's not exactly right, but you can't expect that from someone who doesn't speak norwegian) I was pleasantly surprised xD

"They have no problem pronouncing famous skiers names"

So you think. Unless you're Norwegian I'm sure natives are picking up some kind of accent.

I say give the guy a break, he was obviously trying to say Northug in a non-American accent. As a Canadian, I'd think you'd have some latitude on this. Are you as bitter about Chretien having a French accent?

haha. Its a good thing that you guys have internet, so you can go firm and atleast try to attack someone. But really, you all fail badly
