Hockey is the only thing Canadians can scoream i ritesorry boogie
ITT Boogie states Canada winning a hockey game tops the toppling of the Berlin Wall.
Boogie, there's a CNN article that states that the Vancouver Olympics has been one of the most problem-ridden Olympics ever. As a public servant, how do you feel about that?
I watched the game in the Whistler town square, packed with thousands of people. The energy was simply indescribable. I don't think it's possible that any other event or moment can match that energy and emotion. Maybe if a soccer-crazy country won the World Cup on home soil, but that's about it.

My mom actually called me when the U.S. pulled their goalie towards the end of the game and accused them of cheating.
Great hockey game....but the worst closing ceremonies in the history of the Olympics. That shit had to be embarrassing to you guys...

That shit had to be embarrassing to you guys...I only caught part of it in the breakroom here. For me, Neil Young and Bill Fucking Shatner made the ceremonies. But then, I did have the fortune of missing Avril Lavigne's performance.
How about Nickelback's performance?
Man, I quickly switched over to the closing ceremonies and saw a giant inflatable beaver (or woodchuck?) with a fucking "MADE IN CANADA" stamp on its tail being paraded around. I quickly switched back to "Sunny with a Chance".

Atlanta still takes the cake. CHROME PICKUP TRUCKS.
Just when it looked like Canada was finally going to gain a little respect...
80% of the Canadian population watched some of the Gold Medal Hockey Game between Canada and the United States of America on CTV. The game averaged 16.6 million viewers and 26.5 million watched some.This Gold Medal game has become the most-watched television broadcast ever in Canadian history.
NBC announced Monday that overnight television ratings for Sunday’s broadcast of the Winter Olympic’s men’s hockey gold medal game were the highest they had been in 30 years.According to Neilsen media research an average of 27.6 million people tuned into to watch Canada defeat the U.S. 3-2 in overtime on Sunday afternoon. That’s the most total average viewers since the Miracle on Ice games in 1980 held in Lake Placid, NY.

Rather than show the world some class, Atlanta decided to use it's moment in the world's spotlight to have a thousand college football cheerleaders spell out "How Y'all Doin" in a stadium while being circled by a parade of chrome pick-up trucks. Yes, chrome pick-up trucks
How many chrome pick-up trucks do you have, GR?
So more people in the US watched the game than in Canada, and nobody even likes Hockey in the US? Awesome. Even in victory, Canada gets owned.
