It's a shootout!

Edit: Sweden wins the 5 shot shootout 2-0. Sweden advances to Gold Medal game; USA will compete for Bronze vs loser of CAN-FIN.

Ok, that's what I figured; I didn't think anyone could be angry at the Moore family at the way they've handled everything.

I was at school all day (now I'm at work) so I haven't been watching the Olympics.

This is just shocking. I did not see this coming at all.

No offence to the US team because I'm sure they played their hardest, but I think their loss is a good sign for women's hockey. This says that the top team(s) can be beat and I think this can be motivation for the other countries to invest in their women's hockey programs.

And the same would apply if Canada lost/loses (although because I'm biased I am hoping they don't).

OMG...I just checked online, and in this brief moment in history, Canada has more medals than the USA! We have 11, they have 10. Mind you, they have lots of gold..we have too much bronze, but bronze is really just "tarnished gold", right? ;)

All I have to say is "don't showboat" and you might just win the gold you should have gotten.

Dumbass!

Couldn't believe it when I saw it - I had to wait for the replay :rolleyes: Can't believe the chick blew a gold just trying to showboat at the end of the race...

Oh did anyone see the dude who forgot to lock his boots in practicing his ski jump? Freaky... what the hell do you do when you go into a jump and your skis just keep going?

Lindsey Jacobellis (sp?) was something like 2 slopes ahead, has about 100 feet to the finish line, and decided to do a hot dog jump, instead of a regular one. She fell, skidded out of bounds, and ended up about 5-6 feet behind the gold medal winner (Switzerland).

I have the feeling that you'll be seeing it again and again and again and again and again...

She has a commercial for Hebrew National Hot Dogs - they should make her their new spokesperson for the next four years!!
