    As an American, I think we are becoming too lazy and probably not focused. NHL players is not a wise decision because they play for fun. I felt very disappointed in Bode Millers when he talked so many trash before the Olympics and in the end, he sucked.

    but have americans ever really been good at a sport. ive never really seen anything great coming from america, sports wise.

    US did finish second in the godmedal legue didnt they? But I know what you mean cuz when you compare population, countries with large pop has more chance of getting many medals, that is why it is so cool how a relativ small country like sweden managed to get 7 gold medals and win the hockey gold were it had to be the toughest competition.

    Australia, Where the bloody hell are you?

    Ahaha, I saw that. Friggen hilarious. She was ahead by a lot too. Then acted like a dumbass and came second. What an idiot. Oh well. It's good for me, I'm Canadian.

    Canada actually did amazing. First time we beat Russia in a while (overall), so I'm happy. Only thing that sucked was our mens hockey team. Poor Gretzky, I felt sorry for him.

    Edit: LA, doesn't Russia have a bigger population than America?

    Edit 2: Henri, Chad won like 4...
