Gold Face Olympic Power = Canada

JMC: ever been to Wisconsin, North Dakota, Montana or Minnesota in the winter time? Ever visited Buffalo after they have a snow storm? And while it hasn't happened in a while, I think I can remember the Blue Jays winning a couple of World Series some time back.

I for one, am very glad that the USA held these games and maintained a secure site so that those who have worked so hard had the opportunity to offer their best!

Snook2 - the "whining" (and I thought it was justified especially if you watched their respective performances) was done by not only Canadians but by many Americans as well. Very much the topic on a number of US based news items and magazines with nothing but opinions on the Canucks being "robbed".

As for the intensity of the game - you are so right!
