lettmon: I hope Switzerland finishes 5th-12th in ice hockey.
I congratulate the latvian team for eliminating the swiss and wish them good luck against Canada. Well played and a deserved win.

See how it's done?

Yeah...The Twilight Zone. I watched and saw the starts and I don't know who is right or wrong, but I'm not calling the Russians cheaters. Many things are not likely but do occur. As to cheating, there have been times with the hockey games when a penalty should have been called and wasn't. Is that cheating ? No, just an unobserved occurrence and the refs weren't Russian.

I personally believe all Olympians work extremely hard, are truly good and worthwhile people and I feel badly for those who lose.

They cheated to lose so it's no surprise.
They bribed the referees so all periods lasted exactly the same time (20:00 mins shockingly) and Finns were so used to it that they won.

Nothing's fair in this Olympics.

Good news. I'm rooting for the country that pays less for a medal. Go Sweden!

Sweden has some of the highest paid players in the NHL, and a lot of them. Half of their team are Red WIngs who don't scrimp on contracts. In fact last time I checked their goalie was the highest paid net minder in the league, though that might have changed in the past year what with the Rangers sucking and all. :P

Fixed that for ya. ;)

Also, I suspect "his nickname 'Superman' in the skeleton community speaks for itself" is the most surreal out-of-context sentence fragment I'll read this week.
