While I'll always cheer for Canada, I can also respect that there are really big stories out there for other countries. Germany getting to the finals in hockey is a fantastic story.

Except for the US... I can appreciate their athletes, but as soon as the fans bring out the U.S.A. chants, they've lost any support from me.
This is exactly my feeling! I can appreciate their athletes except their women hockey team, some of those women are classless jerks.
