Hey... y'all north of the border resurrected that shameful part of music history.

Since I didn't watch the figure skating stuff I had no idea they had performed to that tune but with all of you talking about it here I now can't get that freakin' song out of my head. Thanks. Thanks very much. Arseholes...

You know, it was THE CANADIANS who resurrected that song. :-$

In fact, I think they are going to pump it into the Richmond Center during the game in hopes of psyching out Team USA. ;)

Hockey is such an ugly, sloppy sport. Pass.... skate.... turnover..... pass .... skate .... turnover..... turnover.... turnover

It's just awful to watch a sport where the players are constantly losing control of the puck/ball. Could you imagine watching a basketball game with this many turnovers, and only a half-dozen baskets being scored? I guess that's why they have so much hitting.

Come watch the women play. This game is proving it can be worse.

Canadians 2, USA 1 with 11:00 to go.

Miller in goal is AMAZING.

4:30 to go: Score hasn't changed. Good goaltending on both ends.

USA has empty net with 1:30 to go. Luongo is playing well enough in goal for the Canadians. Face off near Luongo.

Looking at the last goal, the Canadian defense fell apart. 2 USA players behind the defensemen. Luongo couldn't corral the save he made, and then Parise grabbed it and slapped it in.

OVERTIME!!
