    We WON???? OMG!!!!!

    I was listening on the radio and then got home...they had gone into overtime!

    Hey, USA - according to what the medals mean, to be in the top two of the whole WORLD in ice hockey is stupendous! If not for you, no overtime. BRILLIANT, guys! BRILLIANT!

    I told you all that we know how to handle a stick.

    The US team didn't make it easy for us. Congrats for playing a great game and you should be proud.

    I love the closing ceremonies. I love the atomsphere - even watching it I can feel the happiness and joy. For once, race, color, nationality don't matter anymore - I think that's one great thing about the olympics. The world comes together in peace for 2 weeks.

    What.....A........GAME!

    Congrats, ye residents of North Canukistan.


    It was a good day for the game of hockey. Canada did what is was supposed to do. The US set the stage for 2014. Here is to more US kids choosing to play hockey rather than football. LOL

One man said it was very hard to root against Canada. One woman said she wasn't rooting against either team because there are Hawks players on each team. I like that approach. First goal I was like, Goal -Toews! Yeaah! - oops, wait... They interviewed Sidney Crosby after the game and he looks like he's about 16. (I know he's older than that!) I could watch the entire game again. Wish I'd taped it! They showed it without commercials except during the intermissions.

    I felt the same way. I cheered for every goal - my husband thought I was nuts! lol Yes Crosby looks like he hasn't hit puberty yet lol, his playoff beard is kind of sad looking

    Exactly! Forget that football, get into hockey! That was one of my favorite parts of the playoffs the past two years, Pittsburgh is more of a football town and it was so great to see people get excited about hockey.

    Curling.

    That way no kid will complain about sweeping up their rooms.

    If I had kids? They would be on the Olympic shooting teams.
