are you named ryan perchance?

Oh God, I wish. I would have won this game for the US!

 

[Y2Kev]

oh yeah? well do YOU want to try to beat us at Nathan's annual Hot Dog eating contest? what a joerk!!!

 

[ksan]

At least we try to invite others to play our sports and promote them rather than sitting back like spoiled little kids saying "this is OUR sport."

Have to ask you.
Do you really believe what you're writing? :lol

 

[BolognaSoup]

how about some curling?

I LOLed.

 

[eznark]

The US needed a black guy... named Ryan. That would have put them over the top.

I bet Kyle Okposo would change his name if it guaranteed him a spot.

 

[The Chosen One]

If there's an upside, when Sarah Palin becomes our President in 2012 at least I won't be emigrating to a total loser country.

Now Canada just needs to win a sport that's played at room temperature.

 

[Seth C]

Let's not go crazy. A few Americans will watch the sport for a couple of extra weeks.. maybe a few people will go to some NHL games.

Then the NFL draft will ramp up and no one will give a shit again.

Hell, I already don't give a shit. Haha.

 

[Brinbe]

Wow, that anthem commercial is amazing.

 

[BertramCooper]

Now that Vancouver's done, two questions:

1) What's the time difference between Sochi and the Eastern U.S.?

2) Has NBC secured the rights to the 2014 Olympics? (please no please no)

 

[BolognaSoup]

If there's an upside, when Sarah Palin becomes our President in 2012 at least I won't be emigrating to a total loser country.

Yeah! I mean a loser would never run away crying when things don't go his way.

So, lets recap:

- most overall medals ever by Canada in the Olympic Winter Games - 26
- most gold medals ever by Canada in the Olympic Winter Games - 14
- most gold medals ever by Canada in any Olympic Games, Winter or Summer - 14
- most gold medals ever by the host nation in the Olympic Winter Games - 14
- most gold medals ever by any country in Olympic Winter Games history - 14

OWN THE PODIUM - MISSION ACCOMPLISHED

In Canada, "fucking freezing" IS room temperature.

[Forceatowulf]

eh, what are ya gonna do? It was a more than valiant effort by my home team, so I'm not too disappointed. Great game regardless of the outcome.

Well done my Canadian brothers. Well done.

 

[Chumly]

Theres only 1 true loser for the olympics............FUCK YOU NBC. Seriously shittiest coverage fucking EVER.

 

[Seth C]

Oh for crying out loud, on the west coast in the US NBC is just now about to air the 50k cross country skiing.

 

[Brinbe]

Yep! I could hear all the helicopters circling overhead. :lol

how hyped are you for MINUTE TO WIN IT

 

[SuperSonic1305]

It's so nice that Canada has the record for most wins at one winter olympics.

 

[Brazil]

Congratulations Canada on the Olympics!

These past few days made me sympathize a lot with the country and its people. I might just have to visit it someday.

 

[jibblypop]

Theres only 1 true loser for the olympics............FUCK YOU NBC. Seriously shittiest coverage fucking EVER.

That's what every American I know has told me. That they seriously dropped the ball.

 

[criesofthepast]

Weeee aree the championssss...

OF THE WORLD!!!!

 

[BertramCooper]

I've just received about six "Canada 0nline Pharmacy" spam e-mails in the last twenty minutes.

Coincidence?

 

[Y2Kev]

It's so nice that Canada has the record for most wins at one winter olympics.

enjoy it while you can because I'm sure china will win every event in both olympic games by 2046

 

[Pappasman]

I'm so goddamn happy. As a Canadian living in the US this win was made so much sweeter now that i can rub it in to all the people who gave me crap for Canada losing to the US the first time they played each other.

 

[Canova]

ok hundreds of kids just blocked off Yonge & Elginton intersection.

they're all dancing in the middle of intersection :lol

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

Fuck yeah, Canada. Great game.

 

[-COOLIO-]

Are you sure that you do? :lol You will run out of sports before we do.

well it looks like canada won quite a few medals this year, we probably got a couple more.

 

[Warm Machine]

Theres only 1 true loser for the olympics............FUCK YOU NBC. Seriously shittiest coverage fucking EVER.

CTV's coverage was incredible. As much as I loved when CBC would do it, CTV was spectacular and while it wasn't as balanced they still retained a good global attitude to it.

 

[Barrett2]

What NBC needs is a reality show hosted by Guy Fierino where fatties do stupid shit for a few bucks. *barf*

 

[neptunes]

Wow, where could I party? The cars horns are going off non-stop.

 

[seady]

man the exchange rate probably just dropped again.

 

[Canova]

ok I'm gonna join the street party :lol

 

[thetrin]

I'm a Stars fan so the Stanley Cup run still has a special place in my favorite sports moments.

National Sports > League sports.

 

[Y2Kev]

no no no no. they really need a show with comedians who don't give a shit making unfunny 1 liners about people who should be divorced.

 

[Firestorm]

Congrats Canada. You beat us 1 out of 3 times this year in our 5th sport. Want to play some football now?

At least we try to invite others to play our sports and promote them rather than sitting back like spoiled little kids saying "this is OUR sport."

Yeah! I mean a loser would never run away crying when things don't go his way.

wtf? u mad?

 

[criesofthepast]

Fuck Brampton/Mississauga. It's so quiet here. Should take the bus downtown and get nuts.

 

[BertramCooper]

How about one where Alec Baldwin makes fun of other people's relationships?

GENIUS.

EDIT: Beaten, ha ha.

 

[dankir]

2010 Canadian Winter Olympic team - BEST AT BEING FIRST!

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

 

[BolognaSoup]

Not really. We enjoy our tax rate (for now). :lol

 

[neptunes]

Fuck Brampton/Mississauga. It's so quiet here. Shouls take the bus downtown and get nuts.

Yeah, living in Mississauga sucks ASS, I might just head downtown. Either Dundas Square, Younge and Bloor, or Spadina.

 

[Kos Luftar]

EH OH CANADA GO!

Yeah, living in Mississauga sucks ASS, I might just head downtown. Either Dundas Square, Younge and Bloor, or Spadina.

Go to COOPERS PUB on Mavis and Burnhamthorpe.

 

[Lard]

\(^^)/

HOORAY FOR THE CONTINUED USE OF CAPS!

 

[wolfmat]

Most awesome photo finish - Germany

I can't believe we're still relevant with our little country.

 

[neptunes]

Sidney Crosby scoring that goal is something straight out of a movie.

I'm still in shock.

 

[Pappasman]

i wish i was in vancouver with the rest of my family...

CTV gets an A+ for these Olympics from me. MUCH better than CBC has ever done. 3 networks rolling unique content all the time, everything live/no tape delays, amazing online streaming of all three networks (complete with real-time updating annoted bookmarks), etc. Fucking incredible. I hope CBC never gets another Olympic contract. CTV is fucking godly at this.
