Oh, right. You're American. Try reading it slower and sounding out each word. |

This beautiful exchange made me actually look that up.
lol @ the US having more winter olympic medals than Canada by almost 2:1 (253-145). The summer olympic results are more expected at almost 9:1 (2296-260). Interesting. |

They only pay attention during Hockey and forget there are other sports in the games.

Craig that's not to bad for a country that has the population of California, but is the size of Russia. There would have been more medals but Ben Johnson had to give his back as I recall.

He'd make a plan and follow through. That's what Brian Boitano'd do. |

It's all about the gold Craig (second place is really just the first loser) and in 2010 Canada broke the record for most gold ever won by a country at a winter games. Not bad for a country with roughly one tenth the population of the states. |

Again, not my fault no one wants to live there.... That's only like a 10:1 ratio (1016:110).

Why do you keep bringing the Summer Olympics into this, we suck at the summer olympics and thread started talking about the winter. Winter golds are more like 87 USA-52 Can. Plus it is the recent results that matter most, in 2010 it is Canada's 14 to USA 9 and we're tied right now at the current games.
Also 10:1 ratio makes sense as that is the population ratio as well. |
