Adam van Koeverden, kayaker and double medallist in 2004.
aaaaaaaaaahhhhh.
That's a mighty fine looking paddle he has there. (//vny!://discoverseattle.net/forums/richedit/smileys/Happy/12.gif)
And he's even wearing a Roots Canada shirt. Take it off!
I think his nickname is Wonder Buoy .
Pfffft. I don't think so. He's just getting his flag ready.
cool. Showcasing Canada's strong rowing history.
^^^^
That's not exactly what I was getting excited about.

I know! HE'S SO HOT!!! Is he married?
A little afternoon delight Lil Me ? [img style="CURSOR: pointer" onclick=url(this.src); src="vny!://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/more/bigs/c032.gif" border=0]
Yes, I'm procrastinating again.
Better that than masticating.
I think.
and also causes carpal tunnel syndrome.
and blindness.
lol. We all can't wait to see his flag.
I'd buy a calender!
I think we should put Adam van Koeverden on commemorative stamps, coins, and heck...let's stick him on Canadian currency.
Lil Me is smitten. (//vny!://discoverseattle.net/forums/richedit/smileys/Happy/3.gif)
Yup. I've never had such an interest in Olympic kayaking before.
Fascinating sport. I've always said that.
Always.
Yeah but can they make EPIC tv commercials?
Adam could sell or advertize anything, I'm quite sure.
I dunno. It would have to be Epic. Like him rowing down a BC stream, close up of pain on his face, its raining, and he picks up the single boat by himself walks away in the rain. With a crescendo music score.
Then commercial fades to black, pop up Canada's logo and use a slogan like 'Real' one word slogans are the best. Keep it under 3 if you have to.
EPIC stuff over here too !
Let's get back on topic for crying in the sink !!!!!!

That picture, at sunset, in the pouring rain in his rowing uniform. Easy commercial.
Uniform ?
Rowing? What's all this about rowing? He's a KAYAKER.
Yeah his official outfit
Oh cool even better. You could turn the EPIC ad into a Marine ad. he could kayak down a water fall then climb up a cliff, throw down the Canadian flag on top of a cliff.
Don't make me come over there SD.
EPIC
What seriously I could see a kayaking version of this ad:
[a href="vny!://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UwY67LYzH7Q"]vny!://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UwY67LYzH7Q[/a]
[a href="vny!://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zup4AfPK9gg"]vny!://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zup4AfPK9gg[/a]
Or Mr. Marine Man would be better (local St. Louis guy was killed in Afghanistan)
[a href="vny!://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cIxmo-7KVUU"]vny!://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cIxmo-7KVUU[/a]
They always used to play that ad during saturday cartoons when the 4-7 year old demo was watching. Then there's the one where the Marine slays a dragon. yeah.
I can't take any more. [img title="Plug ears" alt="Plug ears" src="vny!://forums.reebosak.net/images/smilies/107.gif" border=0]

I'm with PC, can we please get back to talking about his magnificient kayaking oar, please?!?!?
Adammm...oh Adam. I'll bet he smells good, too.

He's the perfect guy. He doesn't snore and he doeasn't leave beard trimmings in the sink.
Adam. oh Adam.

LM - we can be his spandex together. You carry the left cheek and I'll take the right one. (//vny!://discoverseattle.net/forums/richedit/smileys/Happy/4.gif)
