Really? That's too bad, I'd totally give you guys that medal because you'd actually appreciate it. I kind of heard we had a hockey game tonight, but honestly, no one watched it here.

That's what I hate the most. I mean, its obvious there ARE a lot of Americans who watch hockey, but I think the majority don't care, or have no idea what it means to us. And besides, NBC didn't even air the hockey game.

And do you mean you're pissed at how low Johnny Weir placed at the exhibition? You realize he won gold in Vancouver right?

Sorry, but like Tobias I also watched that incredible game. And the win is all over the news.

I don't think it's fair to assume that because there are people in the states who do not watch hockey, that by default that means no one cares. Plenty of Americans are excited by this win.

Sorry Canada, but your team lost and them's the breaks. There has to be a winner and a loser and this time your ticket just came up is all. But please do not suggest that our team and their fans did not, do not, or will not 'appreciate' this victory simply because we don't have as many fans of hockey here as you do there.

BTW, congrats to Bodi Miller for focusing and getting all three types of medals!! Many might be saying,"It's about time" and in regards to the Olympics, that's true. BUT, Bodi is one of the winningest skiiers in American history - he just hadn't taken an Olympic gold medal till now. It's not that I like him one way or the other, but his skiing talent can't be argued about anymore. In fact, American athletes have done exceptionally well in all the disciplines of skiing.

Yes your right. Johnny weir did not get first.

I know nitro. That was unfair of me to say. I was just dissapointed and hearing boiler say the majority of Americans didn't care about anything hockey related just fueled my anger.

I'll just sulk away in embarrassment now...

That's right boiler. And the people I know could give a rats backside about b-ball, preferring football, baseball, and yes, even hockey lol And others I know care more about surfing than any other sport. In fact for most surfers, there ISN'T any other sports lol

The debut of ski-cross was awesome to watch. It's tough enough with one board..now add two, smaller, thinner boards under each racer and IMHO there will be a ton more wipeouts lol It's very addicting though, like the speed skating events with Apollo..they put me on the edge of my seat, talking to the television and biting my fingernails lol

We didn't do so well in the ski cross, but it was fun to watch. Anyone else waiting for Olympic Tubing?

actually my favorite team is Vancouver!
