Did anyone else just hear this? I am not saying I disagree 100% with his assessment, but I do suspect fan960 is going to have some pissed off listeners email in.

Hunter estimates that we are only at 34% of the number of the medals expected at this point. Called some performances embarrassing and called out the work ethic of several Canadian athletes. Blames the Canadian attitude of "participating is good enough" on our "lackluster" success so far in Vancouver.

Yikes! You would think a discussion like this would be better after the olympics once we digest things and see how we do overall.

This wasn't some off one-off remark either, it was a fairly heated rant that went on for 2 segments- Hunter admitting that he is very P O'd at Canada's performance so far.
