What? No hockey or beer guzzling this Olympics? What about draft-dodging?

It is important to participate and feel good, not to win. But everybody has health care (with 6 month wait).

And then they cross the border into Michigan for surgery.  And then go home and curse the MI pee-wee hockey teams in French.

You know what, their swimmers haven't done much of anything at all. That's a switch.

Australia, with 2/3 of the population of Canada, has 6 gold, 4 silver, and 6 bronze.

Yes, but they are still far more sensitive than we and certainly are morally superior. Just ask them!

Could you colonize Canada for us. At least then we would have a neighboring country we could trust.

The bronze metal is in women's 10-m platform synchronized diving. Now that's a real sport. Exactly how do your chug a Blue when diving?

Why go out of your way to pick on Canada? Sure, they're not doing well, but why does that make you happy? I'm always puzzled by those who derive pleasure from the misfortune of others.

No need to kick them when they're down.
