Beating the PRC.
The PRC is already beaten.  Is it so important that your drugs are better than theirs?

Besides, it'll all be irrelevant if China ever lands a man on the moon.

And yet Canada can't get an Astronaut into space without our help. :console:

Actually, Canada has an identical ability to put a man into space as the US.  :console:

:D

Incidently they had another incident of handling the ball in their own penalty box and not being called by the ref today.
I think that was a good no-call.  Calling an inadvertent handball in a penalty area in a one goal game is a travesty.

Actually, the US can afford to pay the Russians to send someone into space much more than Canada can.

None of them are Rednecks, it's not Skeet shooting.

It's a proper sport, like Snowboarding or skateboarding.

Synchronized swimming. If you overlook the ridiculous nose clamps and the weird makeup, it's a rather good looking sport.

Not as good looking as rhythmic gymnastics, however.

Just in case anyone has forgotten, the US women's team won gold in Soccer and Canada sucks.
