Well, I've played basketball in winter, but I'd hope there would be some variation on the game. Like differences between land polo and water polo.
Steven Bradbury had an awesome win last Olympics, all the speed skaters fell, and he flew past them. It'd be great if he could do that again.
Yeah, I think people need to stop making fun of him, he won on skill - it's not that they fell down but rather he stayed up. Yes, he was far enough behind that he wouldn't get tangled, but he still managed to take the line before any of them got up again.

The only reason the U.S. wins more medles is probably becasue they are doped. I mean one is already kicked out.
That and they have a lot of people.
Remeber that Canadians won the first gold medel in Snowboarding.
The Italians had it good for Bobsleigh.
As for hockey, We beat the U.S. in the finals for both mens and womens.
I can't wait to see this year's (whats it called?) Accorbatic downhill skiing.
