Not only lapping the field but handing out wedgies and swirlies on the way by.


With Men's hockey, the Canadian teams dominated, but you saw the improvements in the other nations, especially the Russians and the Swedes. I'm not seeing Woman's hockey being taken seriously as an Olympic sport except in Canada and the US.


Frankly, its just not enjoyable or fun to watch until the final.



There are two nations taking it seriously, that's not enough to keep it as an Olympic event.
