This Canadian home gold drought thing is *hilarious* considering that host countries usually do much better than usual.

Well, they got 7 in Torino, so I imagine it'll end in the next day or two.

The replay of Shaun White smashing his forehead against the top of the half-pipe was crazy!

It really is true too... We ain't right in the head

You really have to have a different mindset to excel in Winter Sports... Even the fundamental conditions that they take place in will push most people away...

Thank God most of the hockey will be on cable so it won't be tape delayed.

If any of you have a slingbox on the East Coast it would be very appreciative.
