My favorite Canadian phrase I have heard though is the Americans were just lucky the whole tourney. I laugh when I hear this, especially from Moon , They were all home games for you and it took you a shoot-out where your best player had to shoot twice to win a game, you lost a game, and barely escaped a slovakia team to slip into the finals.. and still got to and won a Gold medal game... I mean really which team had to employ more luck to get to where they were in the tourney???


.... ohh and not to mention almost doubled ya up on the medal count. I dont consider the winter games a loss for the US...

Now lets go back to the Summer Olympics in '08 ... U.S had triple digits in medals and Canada had umm I think it was 18 .... talk about losing eh?




edit: and please no one be offended.... we ( well at least I am ) just tossing out harmless barbs at my canadian friends. I know you guys won Gold at Hockey and you deserved it . You were the most talented team at the games. and dont bother trying to be a jerk about what I am saying... I have gotten from every one of my Wife's family in the last 2 days ... it doesnt faze me .... and please realize , everything I am saying is in fun !!!
