Thank you for letting me believe in courage again.
Joannie Rochette, skating four days after the sudden death of her mother, won the bronze, giving Canada its first women's medal since Liz Manley's silver in 1988.
I would say for the last 15+ years I wake up early every Friday morning to get ready for work and at times catch the ABC world news while I get going in the morning. I figured that at various times I'd catch this video and would have this song buzzing through my head all day and figured maybe I shouldn't be the only one.
This just might be a trophy that I would be interested in. Some brain trust at BBQ Addicts came up with a bacon Vince Lompardi Trophy you can eat. Anybody have any eggs?
I know it is not the gold medal and it only scratches the service compared to the victory over Russia in 1980, but The U.S. hockey team beat Canada in the Olympics for the first time since 1960. I am enjoying the other events in the Olympics but hockey is my first love and anybody that know me knows that. The U.S. Men are 3-0 and the Women are 3-0 and there is a long way to go but it would be great if both won a medal.
Female Ski Jumpers are not allowed to compete at the Olympics in Vancouver this year and I think that blows. This is 2010 and if there are going to be competition for the men, then there should be competition for the female athletes also.
