Talk:Crazy Canucks

I think there's an error in

The 1980-81 season was a repeat of the previous one, with Read and Podborski dominating the team, while Irwin continued his series of spectacular falls. At Kitzbühel, Read won again, while Irwin took fifth. The team had extremely high hopes at the 1980 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid, New York, but Read's binding popped open at the start of the run. However, Podborski earned the bronze medal, which was the first ever downhill medal by a North American male. Although Podborski was disappointed at the outcome, the Olympics marked the start of his winning streak, as he finished the year with seven wins.

According to http://www.ski-db.com/db/81/cal_m8081.aspthere was only one downhill at Kitzbühel in the 80/81 season, and it was won by Podborski, with no other Canucks in the top 10 (http://www.ski-db.com/db/81/18106wc.asp) That was the first of three straight downhill wins in a row by Podborski. I'm not sure what kind of overall record that was, but it was certainly unprecedented by a North American.

Significant changes
Starting early last year (2007) a significant number of edits were made by the anon user at 24.64.86.57 that significantly changed the article. Background material was removed outright, and many facts were changed or modified. There's no refs before or after, and one of the external sources I originally used has now disappeared. So basically I consider the entire article HIGHLY suspect. Maury (talk) 23:09, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
