Yeah, hockey in 1980 was particularly nice when we beat the Soviets.
That was the last time I watched the olympics.
I admit I am watching now, just because of the politics
Water Polo...Pthbbbttt... How boring
I used to watch the Soviet team for years before that and they were a pretty good professional team, the Czechoslavakian team appeared to be professional too.
I remember when the NHL All stars played the Soviet team, was fun stuff, exposed them for the pros they really were.
“Yeah, hockey in 1980 was particularly nice when we beat the Soviets.”
Oh my gosh, I remember sitting in the living room with my Dad (the retired Chief)when Team USA won the hockey gold
“Take that ya commie basta*ds”.
Good for Dad, good for the USA.
