Just because he isn't to blame, is no reason to not blame him.

Sorry, couldn't help myself. :oops:
Am on the hunt already. Sydney Olympics I believe was the one they competed at. If memory serves their brother also competed at the same Olympics.

Nah, just lulling her into a false sense of security before pouncing from behind. :)

I work with a dual olympian.
Was also the flag bearer at an opening ceremony but was not for shooting.

Competed for Australia.
Was going to be to old for third Olympics so retired after second. Rule changes made them eligible for third so after years of not competing started training again, lost 30 kg and just missed out on qualifying.
Yes some Olympic sports have age limits.
Another clue for you, captained their sport/team at second Olympics

Rules out my first two picks then. I'm sure we would have heard all about before it if it was torah or alisa. :lol:
