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.

5th, 13 behind the USA in medal count. I'm not writing off that they could still be top 3 in the medal standings but the way I look at it without all these chokes last week the Canadians did have a great chance at finishing 1st for golds and medals but instead we are now hoping they can come close in just golds.
I blame all the money that was spent, hype on the television and just pure choke jobs by the Canadians which has made this a disappointment. If I just went into the games like every other games I wouldn't have been let down up until now.
