Canada is prepared to blow by the USA in golds with two curling, a possible hockey, and a couple others.

I don't think so. Losing a gold medal or even any medal on a stupid mistake will never be laughed at. It is something that will haunt him for the rest of his life no matter what he says in public.

Nobody said that Kramer made jokes already. We did. And Kramer will. After some time. Not much time, I predict. Don't forget that he has shown that he's the fastest (and at that moment also the most stupid) of them all.
Yeah Nabokov got beat by his own Sharks teammates. The San Jose Canadians are on fire. I would love to see a US/Canada rematch.Quote

Kipper - the best goalie in the world
That's debatable
I think that debate is over.
It's going to be Kipper against Miller tomorrow... Miller already humilated Brudoer.
Luengo seem to be doing just fine, but Nabakov turned out to be just another mortal (even though the loss was not no way his fault: there is no goalie in the world to do anything against that kind of thunder attack Canada did yesterday).

What I can't understand is this disqualification crap between China and South Korea in the women's Short-track speedskating.
Clicking skates when athletes are practically on eachothers back seems very subjective. Korea had inside position and got screwed IMO.
Meanwhile the American women, a quarter lap behind everyone get a bronze metal that they did not deserve. I thought it was in cheesy and in poor taste to skate around with the flag on a questionable disqualification win.

I sincerely doubt he will be joking about it inside, maybe for a few reporters but he is a competitor first. I predict his coach will be fired after the beating he will get in the Dutch press after the olympics.

My heart bleeds for the Swedish ice hockey team... They didn't deserve this.
Anyway - I'll cheer for the Swedish cross country ladies in tonight's relay.
And congratulations with yesterday's victory! It's great to see that a nation with a great anti doping policy and no tolerance of cheating does well in the games. It's about time the cheaters don't take home all the medals.
These games must be the cleanest in history.

He IS the best speed skater in history. That's NOT up for discussion. He's 23 - hasn't even reached the age where he's supposed to be at his best. Next Olympics, in Sochi, he'll be back and return to the Netherlands with 3 gold medals. Perhaps 4 - including the team competition. Time's on his side.

It now appears he didn't even do THAT, at least not in public - at first it was thought he said "Wat een klootzak!", but later it turned out he said "Wat een coach!"...Quote

Norwegian TV showed a clip where he (...) called him an a**hole...

Canada, the country that invented the sport, only to see the bankruptcy of their dump-and-chase hockey made apparent by the Soviet national team in the 1972 Canada Cup, and which is led by Queen B-tch Cindy Crosby, ain't gonna win it either!
QBCC wasn't even the best player on the Penguins during their Cup run last year. Evgeny Malkin was by a mile.
2010 is the year of OVECHKIN! First at the Olympics, next in June.

Well, that didn't happen, did it baxlap ? Oh,and to the writer from Pravda who referred to Canada as a nation of "retentive cowards" a couple days ago, thanks for the added motivation !

All this coming on the heels of the Olympic Committee President Jacques Rogge's statement that the committee is considering eliminating women's hockey from the Olympic games due to the lack of competitiveness between other countries.
