I wonder if that guy at Paradox is going to break out the 'mountie fagits' picture again.

It looks like the Canadians will win. As much fun as Spain in soccer... :cry:

I don't get the reference...


Perhaps a bad comparison, should be more like Brazil. Sure, they are good and watching them play can be amusing, but they are winning so much that it becomes boring. Like Canada in Hockey.

ToughTluck for the Swedes.  One of their best players was hurt, and another was busted for banned substances.

Well, Canada won the Olympics.

:yes:

Gold medals in hockey and curling, men and women.
Posts here are my own private opinions.  I do not speak for my employer.

And Russia finishes with the most medals, both gold and overall.

Pretty much a worst case scenario for the Olympics. (not that I hate Canada or there is anything wrong with you guys, but as far as hockey is concerned, you guys are the evil empire and our biggest rival--Russia is the only the biggest rival for the old people imo)

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

Russia lost where it counted - in hockey.

Let the Russian judges vote themselves gold in figure skating or whatever; let them win a dozen medals in obscure speed skating events no-one watches. They lost in hockey, so they lost.  :lol:

Canadians care a lot about hockey.

Its too bad the short track ice was so bad. If it was decent we would have won the most gold medals again.

As it is we won all the gold medals that matter.

Canadians care a lot about hockey.

And the Dutch care a lot about long track speed skating, the Norwegians care a lot about cross country skiing -  I wonder if you notice a trend here?
