The decision by the International Olympic Committee not to allow women's ski jumping at the 2010 Winter Games in Vancouver has caused a big load to hit the fan.

In a twisted use of logic, several female ski jumpers have gotten together and decided to sue the Vancouver Organizing Committee, using the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

Problem is, the VOC had nothing to do with the decision. It was strictly the IOC, which has determined that women's ski jumping does not meet technical standards.

There aren't enough jumpers to make the event valid, and the sport is grossly underdeveloped. There's never even been a world championship held.

It's a little on the hysterical side.
