    All this time we have used it, now they tell us to get rid of it? Fucking bastards. WTH is the point of that anyways? Stupid people in charge just want to feel in charge.

    Theyre not telling us we have to get rid of it

    Chris Rudge, the CEO of the Canadian Olympic Committee, tells the Globe and Mail they will not be seeking an exemption to allow Canada's hockey teams to use the Maple Leaf logo which they have worn at the past three Winter Games.

    "[The rule] has always been in the IOC charter and the COC, for the past three Winter Olympics, has signed a form supporting us wearing our logo," Nicholson tells the newspaper. "They refuse to fight this with us."




    Seems the problem lies with the COC :?


    Exactly...that's basically the same conclusion I made in this ..... 8O 8) :lol:

    On 1 hand HC is crying the blues, and with both hands, their rubbing them together wondering how many of the new sweaters they'll be able to sell.

    Easy solution: have hockey canada change their logo. This way it can remain on the jerseys. And it doesn't even have to be a big change either. alter it just enough to make the IOC happy.
