I'm just a redneck product of Texas public education who doesn't give a duece about ice skate stick soccer until the stars and stripes 'amateurs' win big...female and male, no parsing necessary.

Interesting that everyone is against shootouts in hockey. They're the best part of soccer.

And this is exactly why I love the Olympics. We can all just be Americans or Canadians or whatever nationality you want, and root for your country. We come together as a world to compete against and celebrate each other. Nations send their best forward to advance comradery and competitive friendliness.

The Olympics in the modern era are supposed to be about bringing us all together as the human race. To celebrate our achievements, to root for those who represent our nations. The Olympics can still resemble what was good in the world, before we have to overly politicize everything and make even joy a partisan pile of pony pucks.

and we can all make that empty promise to ourselves that by the next Olympics I'll try and understand the difference between and axel, lutz and salchow spins.

Hope springs eternal, buddy!

I just like watching all of those folks kick ass, regardless of who the play for. Team USA all the way!

It's because it's in metric, right?

Metrics is easy - divide or multiply by 10.

Anything past one point or break even with curling was Good Will math equations to me.
