Canada kicks some serious butt!
http://www.cbc.ca/olympics/stories/h...coc060226.html
Per capita Canada kicked some *SERIOUS* butt here and is the overall winner by a long shot. Well done all. Congrats! You not only deserve it, we are damn proud of you. You have made our nation stand tall on the world scene. JK

Speak for yourself - the men did poorly, due to their being pompous asses, on the other hand - the women
YAY ! You showed them how to do it.

Fact of the matter is she's right. The woman's hockey team shone while the men's hockey team sucked.
At any rate it was Canada's best showing at an Olymppic Games, winter or summer. While I think being the winner at the 2010 Olympics is rather optimistic, a second place finish may be very possible. At any rate, congratulations to all the cpmpetitors.

Now, since I don't pay attention to the Olympics, how many of the medals were won by Canaduh, and how many were won by men? (I only heard about the lady speed skater who got 5, which is damn impressive).

Thank you - they think they just have to appear - and they win.
Now they know otherwise - they got rapped & beaten, by superior players. And of course - the women worked harder & deserved their wins. Quote:

If my tally is correct, the women got sixteen medals while the men got eight.

Most of the commentary went along the lines that the Canadian men played more like individuals than like a team.

Simple truth
is the men's hockey team was not a team. It was a collection of millionaire prima donnas who were all trying to be the super star and never had the concept of a 'team'.
This 'sport', shoudl either be eliminated or left to the true amateurs. The only reason the so-called "pro's" are in there is because Canada was facing increasingly strong competition and afraid of losing as badly as they did on this outing. Get the bums out of there. As for the women. WELL DONE PERSONS OF THE FEMALE PERSUASION!! More than made up for the dismal performance by the prima donnas.

It would be nice if the Olympics went back to amateurs but I don't expect that to happen.
As for the NHL prima donnnas, one would have expected better play out of them. I was listening to Cherry yesterday. He was saying that after 2010 the NHL players may not be participating in the Olympics. Then maybe we can get something like the women's hockey team.

I repeat
It wasn't a 'team', just a collction of prima-donnas who, by definition, do not work well as a 'team'.

Professionals
because of the money.
Even the so-called "Amateurs" are mostly paid to train in the major countries. Gone are the days when little Joanie or Jimmy spent all their free time training at the local gym in hopes of getting good enough. Olympics is big business as we will learn to our everlasting sorrow leading up to and long after 2010.
