Cuban kicks referee after losing bronze medal

FOX Sports on MSN - Olympics - Cuban kicks referee after losing bronze medal

This is crazy, I never heard of this before in the Olympics. This guy is probably going to get banned from every competing in the Olympics.

Wow. It did say "banned for life". The coach didn't even apologise.

This jerk just made the Martial Arts look bad. He Broke the first rule of Tae Kwon Do. Tae Kwon Do is for self defense only!

Attacking the ref like that would get your belts stripped away in the Tae Kwon Do clubs that I belong to.

That man is a disgrace to the sport, and a total disgrace to his country in my eyes and the eyes of many other martial artist all over the world.

What a failure. If it's anything you're supposed to learn from almost any martial art, it's self-discipline, control, and honor. Did this guy just skip to the bone-breaking parts when he was being taught?

Appalling behaviour, great punishment.

I can't help but laugh at the referee's expression here though:

That's not so much an expression as it is a response to a sudden onset of foot-to-face disease.

I'm so glad Fidel's not in power or that guy might be executed.
