Ok, Moosemoose burned the midnight oil on these ones so here we go:
(1) Spanish Basketball Team in Hot Water: Moosemoose's research finds that posing in this manner seems to be a popular pastime in Spain (see Exhibit A, the Spanish Federation Cup Tennis Team http://www.theimproper.com/Template_Article.aspx?IssueId=5&ArticleId=2157) and is quite surprised that no one has thought to explain to Spain how this gesture might be construed as 'rude' as opposed to 'affectionate'. The fact that the Spanish team is still confused as to why this is a problem adds to the very essence of this issue's scandalousness.
Official ruling: SCANDAL!
(2) Canadian Water Polo Coach ejected from game, suspended from next game (http://olympics.thestar.com/2008/article/478294). Likely entertaining from a fan perspective but overzealous coaches are a dime a dozen.
Official ruling: No scandal.
