Heja Sverige!
Have you guys noticed how good the sound is from the rink?
Parabolic mics. Nice aren't they?
Oh ya, we seem to have won. Not to mention a gold and silver from the women's two man bobsleigh.
No score yet Fins and Czechs
I felt a bit sorry for the Russians.
Ya me too...
Oops I just ****** myself 😛

And silver & bronze in the speed skating. Women's Wed.

Our tub-thumping politico's have finally conceded Canada won't "own the podium".
Ah, who cares-- as long as we put a great team on the ice!!

With any insite one could have said that 4 years ago... takes a long longer than that to develop the talent... lets hope they keep it going, next winter olympics will be the real tell.

Not sure I have the (mental) refresh rate for this kind of excitement. This is something I've actually done when we were in school...We watched CURLING -- Brits vs the Swedes.
Sweden-Slovakia in a few minutes!

Who the hell was saying that...? Obviously they haven't been paying attention to our olympic history.
Great game...., and I didn't shed a tear for the Russians. I truly enjoy watching the Canadian style of play humble Ovechkin. I was slightly disappointed that he didn't crawl off the ice this time.
"own the podium"
I have cringed since I first heard that term. How unCanadian can you get?
So, US-Canada final?![]()
It would be foolish to look past the Solvaks. They played a solid game against the Swedes.

agreed.... Heard it for the first time last night, when watching the ladies two man bobsleigh finals. So although I guess we did in that event, it doesn't seem appropriate. Especially for a nation that likes to consider itself humble.
Did anyone watch Isabelle Delobel? -- some gasped.
Which team does she play for....?
There must be a glich with the Olympic home page, because all I get is when I search the name is some figure skater. Which obviously has nothing to do with hockey.

How did figure skating ever get into the olympics anyway?
Nothing to measure but opinion. Where's the faster, higher, stronger part?

Really? That was Kathy Priestner's term coined back in '05. She wrote a report about how to be the best. All you have to do is spend money on the boys and girls and voila!
Hmm.. someone forgot the script on the bus.
