Fine margins again in men's hockey, but I will take it. Also, it's another great day for Canada with 1) a gold-silver double in women's ski cross by Marielle Thompson and Kelsea Serwa, 2) a gold medal in men's curling by Brad Jacobs' team, 3) a bronze medal in short track speed skating (500 m) by Charles Cournoyer.
Fingers crossed for the final against Sweden and in 4-man bobsled now. |

If you're just here to complain and not appreciate the performances in good spirits, take a hike, cry yourself in a corner, and stop shitting over people. I didn't reply to yesterday's post of yours, but that was beyond ridiculous of something to show of a video clip. Bitterness should only reach certain limits, but you clearly crossed them.

That clip was fitting for the US women...
For the men, US didn't stay on their man. Even for a quick second you can't leave your man alone. Jamie Benn took advantage of that and tipped it passed Quick. Although they were close to Benn, they could've lift his stick up before the shot was made, but they didn't. Oh sure the game was entertaining, but on different levels than others. And I'm just telling the truth. Same goes with my post on the last page. |

What are you talking about? Nobody on this thread is bashing Team USA. In fact, I'm emphasizing the shutout because shutting out a team of the high quality of Team USA is a huge feather in Canada and Carey Price's cap - It makes me happy both as a Team Canada fan and as a fan of the Habs (Price's NHL team).
Kira and I are just celebrating Canada's victories. Would you not be celebrating American's victories in your favorite sport?

In other news, Canadian Curling reached a new apex with a Gold in Men's Curling. Between the Men's and Women's Gold in Hockey and now the Men's and Women's Gold in Curling, I think Canada has officially won the Olympics .

WE ARE.... PENN STATE....

That loss in the women's gold medal match is just plain embarrassing.
The loss today in men's hockey is just plain depressing. We cannot get over the hump against Canada in hockey. Like I figured, Canada will sweep the team sports. Unless Sweden pulls through for me.... hah. Fat chance of that. Watch the Finns roll us for the Bronze. Quote:
In other news.... Evi Sachenbacher-Stehle got popped for doping. Wow. I guess it's her second run-in during the Olympics with the blood test, but... She was not performing well in these Olympics. Odd.

The NHL would make a fatal mistake if there's no agreement on getting NHL players back in there for future Olympics. European players would be deserting the NHL into the KHL and in other leagues that are more sympathetic to sending players at the Olympics. Meanwhile, what would we get in North America? The NHL would look like what it was before Europeans came in the picture, same old shit and outdated concepts at times. When I read the whining from Garth Snow as his reaction on the John Tavares injury, it really made me cringe. It's not anyone's fault if he can't build a team that needs not to rely on one single player. Garth, you're a retarded bellend and an incompetent fool.

There's reason why the Worlds is viewed with marginally more legitimacy than the Olympics. Usually you watch the Olympics skate purely for the performance and give no shits for the scores whatever they may be. That's why curling is so mch more calm I suppose.

Fat has always been used to make soap. Must have emphasised on the fact that the referee is from fatmurica.
