Every day the IOC and VANOC release Quotes of the Day. Mostly, it ranges from vaguely interesting to "They are not going to be easy to stop, I'll tell you that," from Russian goaltender Evgeni Nabokov after he let in six of the seven Canadian goals in a 7-3 loss. You think so, doctor?
VANCOUVER -- Every day the IOC and VANOC release Quotes of the Day. Mostly, it ranges from vaguely interesting to "They are not going to be easy to stop, I'll tell you that," from Russian goaltender Evgeni Nabokov after he let in six of the seven Canadian goals in a 7-3 loss. You think so, doctor?

But nothing -- nothing -- compares to this, from Norwegian silver medalist Odd-Bjoern Hjelmeset, on his performance in the men's 4 x 10 cross-country relay. 

"My name is Odd-Bjoern Hjelmeset. I skied the second lap and I f----- up today. I think I have seen too much porn in the last 14 days. I have the room next to Petter Northhug and every day there is noise in there. So I think that is the reason I f----- up. By the way, Tiger Woods is a really good man."

Yup. I don't have anything else to say.
