Re: Who wins Most Medals at Olympics?

aah, and you would have expected me to vote for Russia or something, but i knew it was a trick ... i went US, cuz they will most likely take some snowboarding (too bad this 15 year old kid i know could not go(age).... he's a 4 time US national champion already in freestyle, wicked cool kid who spends like 250 days/year on the snowboard), some figure skating, speed skating, some skiing, um, some bobsled, well, you never know, Germany would probably be my second and Russia third....

Re: Who wins Most Medals at Olympics?

psht, canada both hockeys... we'll have to see that, as of right now, i just seen men 5000 speed skate, US took the gold by like 6 seconds, canada was nowhere in sight, Norway took silver if i'm not mistaken and Italy is a definite bronze.... Russia just took the gold and bronze for the short program in figure skating, and i am rooting for US in women's hockey(there are a couple of ladys from CT on the team, they looked pretty good together while traning for a few weeks here, but we'll have to see the first match before i give any more predictions...) oh also the first match of Canadian women's team is tomorrow too, and they are playing Russia if i'm not mistaken, looking forward to that too, peace, chillax and enjoy your weather as i here get pounded with a noreaster (going snow drifting in the morning )
