Uh, aren't we tied for 4th with a week's worth left of events? The week in which we were expected to win more medals? I'd be very surprised if Canada isn't 3rd or better by the end of this week.

Either way, we're only 3 golds behind the US in the real standings. And we could easily end up with golds in men's and women's curling, women's hockey, and Ice Dance. That doesn't include all the speed skating relays, men's hockey, men's aerials and the snowboard giant slalom where we have as good a chance at gold as anyone.
