C'mon Scandal!

US bronze medallist Scotty Lago had to go home after racy photos surfaced of his bronze-tastic celebrations. Questionable judgement: check. Sexual inuendo: check. Strong-armed into "voluntarily" leaving: rumours abound. Is it a scandal?

Potential scandal-in-the-making, the Austrians are contesting the Swiss ski jumper's bindings as illegal. Invocations of such lore as the William Tell-apple-on-the-head story are blowing the rivallry out of proportion, perhaps, but apparently the tabloids in those countries are buzzing. Scandal?

  1. Scotty Lago=SCANDAL!!! A little inside scoop for you, our friend Scotty was kicked out of Tamarack Resort during the 2008 Grand Prix snowboard competition by none other than my husband(!!!) for jumping off of the chair lift mid trip in order to "impress the ladies!" Boooo Scotty you little bandit! Definitely SCANDAL!
