I don't even get the Olympics anymore. You don't even have to have a vague semblance of citizenship to compete for a national squad anymore. My great grandfather is Italian, think I'll try out for the Italian Bobsled team. Maybe even someday I'll go to Italy!

i doubt there is much competition for the greek bobsled team. chelios probably gets bonus points for having being familiar with ice.

I read in SI that he plans to team up with surf legend Laird Hamilton (who is also Greek) to accomplish this.
