Oh Canada, Our Hockey Wild & Free

As I sit here in the airport, I can’t help but remember with fondness completely spanking the American team 4 years ago in hockey. I’ll be the first to admit the the Americans played well, for Americans. In fact, it was the best hockey game I’d ever seen (before or since).
However, the truth is that hockey simply isn’t an American sport. Never will be. The best they can do is import players from other countries (hello expanded green card program). Y’know I love you guys, and I’m sincerely hoping you make it to the gold medal round again, but no way are you winning this year. It doesn’t matter how many fancy names and ultra hip uniforms you give the team. Y’all just aren’t hockey players!
So, I challenge the American bloggers. If you guys beat us in the gold medal game, I’ll not only apologize, I’ll actually cheer for the States at the next games (and vice versa). Deal? ;-)
…and I’m sincerely hoping you make it to the gold medal round again…
Yeah, right. :) Who are you kidding? :p
Oh Canada … My home and native land …
