    Awesome that Japan has 13 golds, I dont recall that they were so strong at Winter Olys.  Good for them!

    Russia is such a great country,  they don't even have a team.

    People really criticizing a young girl for stepping out due to mental health in a sport they pretend to care about every 4 years

    Is losing that edge really mental health though?  Being gun shy or just not having it in you may be mental toughness but is it really mental health?

    Curious if the two are considered the same thing or not?

    Either way, she didn't feel she had it and she did the right thing.  We should be criticizing our basketball team above everything else at the Olympics.

    Fifty US dollars or 4 million Canadian dollars says percentage wise I can identify correctly more provinces than you can states.

    Did you watch that documentary on the Russian 5 where Yzerman, McCarty, Osgood, Shanahan and Draper all defected from the Red Wings to play for the Soviet Team because it's so awesome there?  What a great story that was.

    Even better, how about the support and encouragement Elena Mukhina received from her coaches and leaders before the 1980 olympics . A class act that Russia.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Yeah, what a bunch of losers! Says every over weight white male while drinking a beer, eating chips and scratching their nuts on the coach in front of their 60 inch TV.

    And they only care because they feel she cost the US a gold.  This wouldn’t even be a discussion if this was a sport that Americans sucked at…
