If history has taught us one thing it's that the Finns hate the French.

As far back as we can remember which would be about 25 years or so the people of Finland have always deeply hated the French. It all goes back to when Louis XIV bitch slapped the Finnish King after the Finnish King called him a poodle loving twat....well after harboring years of hatred the Finn's have finally struck back, From ESPN.com

French long jumper Salim Sdiri was struck by a javelin in his right side while waiting in a designated warm-up area at the Golden League meeting in Rome Friday.

The incident occurred midway through the evening when Finnish thrower Tero Pitkamaki slipped at the end of his run-up, hurling the javelin out to the left of the landing area and spearing Sdiri in his right side as he crouched in the long jump warm-up section."

Well it's only a matter of time before a French shot putter accidentally tosses his shot put through a Finnish sprinters head.
