Best of 2 is a bit less of an accomplishment than winning... say a World Cup of Football. It's like me saying I'm the best lawyer in this office. Well, there is 2 of us here, and about 3,000 other lawyers in the city who don't give a fata.

The one thing that a lot of you are disregarding is that these aren't the only 24 women hockey players in Canada. Yes Canada and the Americans are by far the best nations for women's hockey, but to make the national team, then go through 4 years of training, and then win the olympic tournament (which there is still 1 really competitive team they have to go through so its not a cake walk) is still a pretty good accomplishment.
All in all, the celebration should have still have been done away from the cameras, however there is no reason to be so uptight about it either. Let Jaques Rogge and the rest of his old timer IOC buddies complain. Celebrating with Beer even while underage is something that is generally accepted in our culture. We aren't here sitting around making fun of your accent or anything you do in your culture.
