Well, I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Canada sandbagged in the ealry part of the game and the U.S. killed them for it. But what can I expect from anyone in this country lately?
I Am Canadian, but am really ashamed how all of us can be expected to cheer the key athletes who do NOTHING BUT SANDBAG on the world stage. It really speaks volumes of us when we can go around as a nation and say were proud of choke-artists like this Team Canada who are lazy, wishy-washy, and incompetent. Yeah, I said it. They're incompetent and deserve nothing but a semi-final loss now. TEAM CANADA DOES NOT DESERVE TO PLAY FOR GOLD NEXT WEEK AT ALL, AND THEIR PRESENCE THERE IS A GODDAMN FLUKE IF THEY MAKE IT SOMEHOW, WHICH THEY WON'T! They failed being up 7-0 after 2 against the U.S. and paid for it dearly. But then, I suppose most of that has to do with our global 'nice guy' image, which has made our country totally irrelevant on the larger and most important global competitive stage, where all the glory and money lies. That is what we should greedily and selfishly go after, and give the rest of the world a big Fuck You! Because, to be honest, we are greedy pricks. Yeah...we are greedy. And as a result of putting up this False Front of 'nice guy', we are getting our asses handed to us in short order, when we here in Canada should be selfishly throwing our weight around. I mean, when other countries view us, they say 'Aww...how cute.' when they really think of us as idiots and morons who WILL NOT go out there in the world and just take success ruthlessly. And yeah...we here in this country are not ruthless. We're more like gutless, spineless cowards who bungle things up at the MOST IMPORTANT, GOLD-MEDAL / CHAMPIONSHIP WINNING times, not only in sports, but in life in general. We frankly deserve no respect from any other nation until we realize that going on a blunt-force, kill em' all attack with intense rage is the only way to succeed at things. That ditching our 'good guy / babyface' image is the route to getting lots of good things, such as on-field dominace of and higher political control over sports and industries. I don't think anyone out there in Canada realizes how far back we truly are when it comes to positive advancements in the world at large. Other nations have already passed us by because we refused to say 'No' to them. Avro Arrow anyone? Let's face it...Canada is complacent, incompetent, clueless, gutless, and spinelessly cowardly. How the hell can we expect anyone to take us seriously when we aren't choosing to drop the Front and become openly ruthless, vicious, and ticked off? And enough to the point where we want to take someone's head off for laughing at us? Why do you also think that the 6 Canadian NHL teams haven't won a Stanley Cup in 17 years, and won't win it this year either? Canada, GROW A SPINE AND GROW THE FUCK UP, AND FACE THE FUCKING TRUTH!!!!!! |

So, Ryan "Miller Time" Miller, of Michigan State hockey fame before he went pro, understandably has to remove "Miller Time" from his helmet as it could be seen as advertising for Miller beer or smething, and he's appealing the IOC on the "Matt Man" marking featured on all of his helmets to honor his cousin who also had dreams of making it big as a hockey player but died of Leukemia a couple years or so ago.
Ah well, hopefully we'll see the USA Hockey team back to the gold, and remind the world of why we're just as good, if not better than, the US Hockey "Dream Team" which defeated Russia in the 1980 Winter Olympic Games. |

Great game, nice to see Iggy perform well with Crosby and Nash.
![]() Really impressed with Doughty, he played OHL in my hometown, I took him for granted when he played here, but he really has a bright future in the NHL and playing for Team Canada. |

Right, so some Aussie sheila won the 4th winter olympics gold in the country's history. Snowboard halfpipe or something.
I guess it was nowhere near as entertaining as Steven Bradbury though ![]() |

The Snowboarding cross has been the best thing about the Olympics. Well, the elimination races anyway. The qualifiers are a bit boring. But once the racing begins, crazy shit happens.
The thought of the 2006 finals with Lindsey Jacobellis still cracks me up. |

Been downtown for the Olympics and holy shit I have never seen so many people in my life just randomly walking around and being in such a good mood. 1-6 hour waits in line at pretty much every venue with dick all to do once inside, yet people are still so happy. It's wild. This coming friday I'm going to an awards ceremony and if a Canadian wins gold it's going to be wild.

That game was epic. Canada either is now gonna be unstoppable rest of the tournament or they wont rebound and lose to like Germany in next game and be out. I can't see an in between happening.
What a win for the U S of A. |

Canada has not been playing the best, but I'd really hope we can still get past Germany. And hopefully tonight was a wake up call.
But following Germany, we've got Russia. And that's probably the end of the line. |
