Where do you find the money to support all of your athletes, seeing that your Country is about a trillion dollars in debt from wars from 02-present time. Oh ya from the tax payers, which are basically jobless and loosing there homes etc.

Oh I'm fine, better then fine. Great. I guess Passion comes at an extreme price. That's too bad.

radtech, take it down a notch seriously. Canada won; it's a good thing and we're happy about it. But I don't see anything there to brag about.

Learn to be like the athletes who are actually involved in the Olympic to show respect to other countries. Also, it doesn't matter whether you think summer Olympic is boring or not. The fact is that it's much larger in terms of scale and valued more importantly.

Sorry, but I'm pumped. Oh there's lots to brag about. We've never done this good ever. Just remember it escalates when others start making comments.
I guess then fans shouldn't have been chanting WE WANT THE USA, then. Gimmie a break, it happens every 4 years, and we kicked butt. So taking it down a notch is not an option.

lol, I just don't think you're doing much other than drawing more hatred. You know even if you don't chant, people will still respect Canada for what it has accomplished, probably more if you hadn't gone all out and bragged about it.

Ya your probably right, but I still love rubbing it in, because it's the first thing others would do. We never usually get this chance, so I'm loving it, Canada is loving it. Good job Canada.
