Keep your stick on the ice.

Dear Americans,

Quando omni flunkus, moritati.

Yours truly,
Grueby

Hand over the gold and we'll consider it.

Our sticks will spend the night in air celebrating goals, actually.

I'm pretty sure that Canadians will be so disgusted by their loss tomorrow that they'll burn Vancouver to the ground, and salt the earth just to be sure.

I'd like to be the first to congratulate you Americans on your two silver medals in hockey this Olympics.

Yes, I know you would like to be able to do that, but what you want and what you get are two different things.

I'm so glad you understand that. It will make tomorrow so much easier for you to cope.

Congratulations on your many, many, many third places. Our flag must look like its raised even higher from all the way down there.

LOL.........this thread is awesome....On that note...

GO CANADA GO ! hahahah!

I'LL SEE YOUR PETTY 4 GOLD AND RAISE YOU 7 SILVER AND 8 BRONZE. OH WAIT, YOU'RE THE HOSTING COUNTRY RIGHT?

My point exactly. Good job at not actually winning events.

ITT: we take friendly smack talk seriously.

Seriously. I'm only kidding around, and I THOUGHT you were too, but apparently you're getting offended so I'll stop and actually say something meant at face value:

Both of our countries are performing great. Canada has smashed its old Winter Olympic record, and tied the worldwide record for most golds. Under no definition is this not something to be happy about, or to take pride in our athletes for. Likewise, America has blown past Canada on home soil to take home more podium finishes, and even if they are not first place finishes, it can't be argued that the USA is outperforming literally ALL of the competition.

So long as you aren't against national pride, both countries have exceptional reason to be very proud.

And as far as the hockey game tonight, regardless which country wins*, I don't think anyone can say that what was supposed to happen didn't happen. The two BEST teams in the tournament are the two teams battling it out for gold, and its going to be a great game for fans from both sides of the 49th to watch.

You're doing it wrong. You're supposed to be making fun of Canada, not me.

Also the paragraph WAS serious, that was the whole point of it.

Don't the Americans have a lot more athletes entered in the games compared to other countries?

Anyways, I'm not huge for the selection of players of the Canadian team but I still hope we win Gold.

Actually the team isn't much larger than the Canadian one. I read it was 215 athletes on the American team, 211 on the Canadian one.

Fuck Canada. USA USA USA

As much as I hate to say it, I don't think we have a chance against canada. There is no way we can- oh wait a second...



USA! USA! USA!

Man, it's funny how many of these games have come down to basically being who's fucking up or who's being a brick wall in net.

Honestly, Miller is the only reason I have any real insecurities about our impending win this afternoon.

Last time, we outshot you 44-18. This time we'll double it. He'll tire eventually.

To all of our Canadian fans and supporters:

USA

A Canadian quoted by USA Today - "America has 10 times the number of people as Canada, so they should win 10 times the medals."

Canadian logic at its finest.

Yeah, Canada's totally gonna win:

*Facepalm*

Norway has the most medals over all the Olympics, and it has a population less than 1/7th that of Canada.

Still not half as stupid as the quotes Rick Mercer gets out of Americans though.

Anyway, I'm going to go shower now and head into the school to do some animation, then watch the game with a bunch of other students in the stairwell. I'll see you guys later, after we win our gold medal.

Have a good one guys, hope you can still enjoy the game cheering for the losing team.

Maybe this guy can help:

Huh, even he can see the truth.

I think that's what makes the silver medal in these events worse than the bronze. You win the bronze after winning your last game. Ecstatic moment even for 3rd place. The silver only comes after a crushing loss.

HA HA HA HA, oh shit!

And we're the ones who can't see truth.

To Canadians and Americans- The road to this battle on ice has been long and difficult, filled with successes and which culminated into this epic showdown. No matter who turns out to be the victor, I wish the greatest in sportsmanship and honor for both teams.

To Canada specifically- No matter what happens, you'll always be the best hat a country could ask for. :laugh:

Well, America has ten times the people as canada, so we should have 10x as dumb quotes.

Well, just think, the more silver medals you have, the better you are at being the best loser. That's all those silver medals are saying...

The reason America's Hat won't win gold in hockey is because they have no idea what it means to fight for something. i.e. their independence.

Awesome game though. Just that gold medal damit it.

'falls to the ground in the pouring rain shouting, "Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy?!"

I just heard from a former classmate that Avril Lavigne and Nickelback are performing at the Closing Ceremonies. If this is true, I'd like to apologize on behalf of my entire country.

I'm really, really, REEEEEALLY sorry.

No, you'll have to give back the Hockey gold now.

What I find most interesting about this statement is that you would use that argument, no matter what the truth was. If the roles were reversed and Canada had the most medals, but the US had the most gold, you would say the same thing.

Lighten up, dude.

On topic: That was one heckuva game! I think both teams should be proud.

But seriously good game though.

We have to invade you now.

Christ, I can tolerate Nickelback, but Simple Plan? Fuuuuuuuuck no. I didn't even know they were still a... thing. I thought they faded away.

That was an incredible game. I know I'm a bit late to the thread, but I spent the entire night at a local sports bar. The entire room pretty much shat it's pants when the US tied it up 2-2. There was weeping involved. That overtime was probably the most tense thing I've witnessed in a long time ...

There's a reason I don't normally get this into Hockey. It's bad for my heart.

Yeah dude, it was the same in the detachment. We all crowded around the TV hoping there wouldn't be any calls (there were a couple, and we rock, paper, scissored over them, I won mine!) and I swear, bullets were almost fired at the TV during the last 20 seconds.

Didn't watch it, but just heard. Congratulations!

It's cool. I had declared that if we lost, we would have to burn down that White House of yours again. It only seems fair that you get to torch Ottawa. Give us a few hours, and I can have some disgruntled Newfies over to help

My local radio station just informed me that Obama and Harper had a friendly bet going over the outcome of last night's game: the loser would buy the winner a case of beer.

The radio show then went on to point out that that's a pretty soft bet. As an alternative, they suggested that maybe Obama should have put up Minnesota against Nova Scotia or something.

Something to consider. Or at least beef up your bets. Shave your head or something. You might be high profile politicians, but a case of beer is far too low key.

Obama should have put up Minnesota

I don't think he could have done that, though. He already bet me North Dakota.
