considering we have snow for 6 months of the year and half your country gets none.
February 23rd, 2014 at 10:04 AM ^
Wow, that's a lot of snow. You guys must be much better at the Winter Olympics than the US with your entire country being covered in snow for six months.
*Looks at medal standings*
Nope.
I'm so tired of the population argument when it comes to Hockey. A larger percentage of Canada's much smaller population plays hockey. A large enough difference in percentage that Canada has a larger pool of Hockey talent to pull from than the US(From Wiki):
What's more amazing than Canada's ability to stay ahead of the US in hockey despite that crazy population gap? That Finland and Sweden win Bronze and Silver despite having roughly one tenth the size of a talent pool to pull from.

my comment was aimed towards the lad who said you'd kill us in the summer Olympics. Places like California, Texas, Florida and the like can practice outdoors year round. Kind of hard to practice for marathons, cycling, beach volleyball or rowing events when there is a few feet of snow covering the land. Also since you have nearly 10 times our population you have a greater talent pool to pull from. We should obviously be better in hockey because we have more people playing that sport and fund it accordingly. You can also play hockey year round.
Edit Weird I responded to Maison Bleue's comment not yours.

that if Patches wasn't on team USA, and this game was the US vs Sweden. You'd want Sweden to win,right?

Good luck to Team Canada, and their management staff made of Michigan parents.

I heard she doesn't like to share, but I heard it from a friend of a friend of a friend. So, I'm not sure how true that is.

I hate Cindy crosby
February 23rd, 2014 at 9:08 AM ^
And I don't mean this to you personally, just the example I see today.
February 23rd, 2014 at 9:20 AM ^
February 23rd, 2014 at 9:22 AM ^
Nope, Cindy is a cy baby who whines to the refs for the smallest of checks. Yes, he is talented. However, it doesn't change that he does a bunch of crying and whining during games. If Cindy wants to stop the nickname then actually show some toughness out on the ice.
Lebron is a bitch who will sit out a game for a hang nail. Do not ever compare Lebron to the greatest in basketball. The distance between great forwards like Barkley and Magic and Lebron is like the grand canyon. Lebron is the reason I refuse to support the NBA and consider the league to be completely fixed.
February 23rd, 2014 at 9:30 AM ^
Is it ok for him to whine whenever he gets touch because he went to UofM or because he's an American?
February 23rd, 2014 at 9:31 AM ^
If Crosby somehow miraculously played for the Wings (or your team if you aren't a Wing's guy) you'd be all about his game.
He isn't "talented" he's the best player in the game.
Oh, and he has two gold medals and a ring. Scoreboard/Sour Grapes

I imagine this is exactly how you feel about LeBron, right?

This is like going to an alcoholics anonlymous meeting but I grew up a Cavs fan (the only televised games we could get back in the pre World Wide Leader) era.
