ICE HOCKEY GOLD - and best wishes to our American friends!

[aj77]

WA-HOOOOO!!! You all may not know that hockey is the great Canadian obsession, but this is a great day in Olympic sport, nonetheless.
Your guys (and gals) played the games of a lifetime. Thanks for being true competitors, and excellent sportsmen/women.
(VERY PROUD TO BE CANADIAN!)

Congratulations Canada Only thing is when you win as many medals as the USA its hard to get excited about it unless you actually had something to do with it

We would like to play Canada in basketball. Maybe now Wanye Grestky can stop complaning about everything!

Awesome games ( both of them... ) Congratulations Canada!! Everyone played so well...and it's so great to see the true spirit of competition alive & well. Canada deserved the Gold today and I was elated for them at the same time as being dissapointed for our guys...all in all, I think we both were winners today, though! Also, Congrats Canada on your speed skating successes!!

Thank-you, Albion, and well-spoken! Your attitude is the essence of sportsmanship.
BTW, congrats on the USA's best medal haul EVER!
AWESOME, neighbours!

Congrads on a game well played. This was the first hockey game final that they lost on U.S. soil in something over like 50 years. Justin

That was funny! I've never seen curling before either and I got totally into it! I got all excited when the curling would come on and I had to watch every minute of it...what a cool game! It looks like fun & a bit of strategy as well! I hope it takes off here in America!! I just watched the closing ceremony and I was sad to see it end...can't wait for the next Olympics!

OK daddy, that comes to about 1 U.S. medal per 8.8 million citizens, while we enjoy about 1 medal per 1.8 million of us.
Your point is well taken.
