schoy you're getting no complaints from me. Canada-US hockey rivalries have completely replaced Canada-Russia and with the women, every Olympic final is riveting, fascinating hockey. The Americans turned over their roster more than Canada did and it showed with more team speed. In the end, the game came down to a brutal mistake on a line change by Canada and a shootout (which is a terrible way to end a team game). Full credit to the American team ... you can have one every 5th Olympics.
After that, I thought the best American stories were Chloe Kim, your men's curlers, Diggins/Randall, and Chris Madzer. OTOH, when the hell did we become better at figure skating and long track speed skating (we been better for a long time at short track, freestyle skiing, bobsleigh)?
