Paris Mayor Says Blair, Coe 'Crossed Line' Mon Jul 11,10:51 AM ET

PARIS - Paris mayor Bertrand Delanoe says British prime minister Tony Blair and London bid leader Sebastian Coe "crossed the line" by criticizing other cities that were vying for the 2012 Olympics.

Last week, London was awarded the 2012 Games over Paris, Madrid, New York and Moscow.

"They crossed the yellow line with respect to the IOC rules," Delanoe told France-Info radio Monday after a meeting of the Paris city council.

Delanoe did not offer specific accusations, though two consultants for the British bid were critical of the sightlines at the Stade de France, considered a centerpiece of Paris' bid. Under IOC rules, the bid cities are prohibited from criticizing each other.

However, after reviewing the remarks, Paris officials decided not to complain to the IOC ethics commission. The IOC said it wouldn't pursue the matter.

On Saturday, IOC president Jacques Rogge said none of the cities broke rules designed to stamp out corruption in the bidding process.

Paris bidders were reportedly angry that Blair had met with IOC members in his hotel room in Singapore.

"There's nothing wrong with having a conversation with a major politician from a bid city," Rogge said.

Sounds like the French may have pissed themselves again. Damn bedwetters.

Why are the boulevards in Paris lined with trees?

So the Germans can march in the shade.

There really is nothing like Paris in Springtime... now if we could only get the "collaborators" to shave their legs and Armpits.

The French...

The French have been whining since 1815, I can't see any reason why they would stop now. That country hasn't amounted to more than an insignificant pile of shit since the little Corsican lost at Waterloo.
