Time for MURICA vs CANADIA!
Wow Russia lost against the Finns
Why is anyone surprised? Russia lost to the USA, and could not scored against Slovenia for the longest time. Plus the Finnish defense is insanely strong, and a Russian team with no depth would have had the hardest time trying to score.
Now the semifinal match between USA and Canada will be much more interesting: two good teams with the most depth, arguably the best in the world. But if I had to bet who would win that, I will have to bet on the USA, because I think they will want it more.
Yikes... that was the biggest Russian disappointment since the 5th ring didn't open up in the Opening Ceremony.
That won't go unpunished. Somebody get their loved ones and friends out of Russia, asap!
I should be a better person but I'm not and I was totally schadenfreude about Russia, oh pardon me, Ross-yee-aaaa, losing hockey.
And I'm not even a hockey fan.
I'm kinda hoping (don't tell my friends) that it'll be a bronze match between Finland and Sweden with Finland winning the medal. Whenever they win gold like in the World Cup 1995 & 2011 people just go waaaay too crazy here for my liking. It gets too uncomfortably nationalistic! A bronze would be a nice small victory
On the positive side for US, we are still in the running to do something no other country has done in the history of the winter Olympics: win at least one medal every single day of the competition.

LOL Where do you find those figures and facts which can make your own country look the best?
