Canada sucks at cheating, they could only cheat into a shameful, shameful bronze medal.

Funny how an event which is supposed to enhance peace and harmony can turn someone who was once an admirer of the US into someone who wants nothing more than for them to fail at everything.

i haven't watched one event yet. I never really like the summer olympics. Probably becasue as a general rule canada doesn't do well in the summer.

Wow, new WR set by the American women's 4x100m. They trumphed the DDR's 1985 record. :D
