We don't have that many people. We're just damned good. :D

Now come on and play football against us... Or ice skating :D Or come play hockey against us :p

I do like it when Holland is in the same match as Australia at the olympics :) Cuz, granted, you are currently amongst the top. It's always fun to see how we do against the top :D And to win from them makes victory only that much sweeter ;);7

I dunno about anyone else, but I'm all for making Counter Strike an Olympic event.

"Not a good day for Team USA today in Athens! In a surprising victory, Holland pwnz0red the US after an intense de_aztec showdown! It was expected that the US's strategy of awp whoring would win out, but Holland's 1337 rushing skills and effective use of para spraying spelled the downfall of the US team!"

Actually, for the first time (in history as a matter of fact) Australia is on the very top of the medal tally. :D Go us!

I think we will be playing Hockey against you this olympics, which should be a decent match, as for football - well, Europe doesn't play real football, so you'd get your asses whipped :p.

And Ice skating? :wtf: Like speed skating? When your country's about 90% desert you tend not to be too interested in that sort of thing. :)

Ford: do you really want pimple-faced 16 year old geeks on national TV? When I think of Counter-strike players, "photogenic" is not a word that comes immediately to mind ;) ;)

Well, it's about a strenous a 'sport' as darts & poker, so it's got the same chances of getting into the olympics
