2010 Winter Olympics

[Rome]

I love everything about this team so far.  They play their guts out from start to finish.  The goaltending has been unbelievable.  The offense has been opportunistic and fairly competent considering the level of opponents they've dispatched.  The defense has been outstanding.  On and on it goes...

Not quite sure why anyone would find any reason to hate them but whatever floats it, I guess.

i dont care if he wins....i care if he stays healthy

if the us makes the gold medal game against ussr ill fully be rooting for AO to light up the usa so fraudulant little bitches like yourself and the rest of MA suffer...you people who once every four years drape a blood stained flag around a temporary love of a sport you hate are pathetic

i wont suffer and no one in MA will. this tournament has been fun and its been great hockey. the fact is its unquestioned better hockey than what we see in the nhl and more entertaining than your basic red wings/oilers game. the nhl sucks. they have 20 games and 10-15 teams too many. they have like 2 interesting players. hockey is a great sport and decent on hd and it deserves better. and thats where the olympics come in.

also let us once again revel in the utter hatred and anger stored in your cholesterol filled heart for things that no rational person would ever get remotely irked about.

you hate hockey...everyone knows it and has commented on it one time or another...this is the case no matter how hard you try and usa it up over the next few days

i'm watching on a 65inch, in hd a little bit different.  Hiller is playing great.  USA has had some great chances, so has Switzerland.  Sbisa looked like he broke a finger or 3 blocking a shot early, he hasnt been back for the swiss

Ahhhhh, go pick your brother up at the airport.

I want Jennifer Lopez stories!!

lol...sorry you hate all hockey except for a two week period every four years...what was i thinking

[Sgt PSN]

i'm confused.  does the little guy like hockey now? 

[MDS]

my utter hatred of the nhl gets confused with my general basic interest of the sport.

i dont hate the game, i hate the league. olympic hockey = great. world juniors, college = passable. nhl if they got rid of bettman, 10 teams and 20 games = goat.

one reason Olympic hockey is better:  less fighting.  that means more skating more passing more better

[Sgt PSN]

the only thing i like about olympic hockey is that every 4 years i get a 2 week break from the nhl.  hockey, in all forms, is unwatchable for me pretty much until playoff/stanley cup time and if the flyers are in then i'll dust off a flyers jersey and support the home team.  that's about as far as i go.

until sunday....unless youre counting his high interest in the "world juniors"

one reason Olympic hockey is better:  less fighting.  that means more skating more passing more better

its has no fighting not less....of course the nhl has less than one fight per game so really there is no tangible difference

in theory the olympics should be better hockey because its the best players...unfortunately that gets cancelled out by the fact that the players are worn out by the time they get there and have very little time to practice together...plus the inclusion of countries like germany who arent as good as a minor league hockey team

when it comes down to it the olympic hockey is only better than the nhl if you get into the patriotism thing...it gives you a huge rooting interest which is fun

[Diomedes]

no fighting?  hell, I might tune in

[MDS]

god forbid people should support their country. you essentially revolve your entire existence around 4 teams most people a. dont know exist and b. dont give a shtein about. yet its stupid for people to casually root for a hockey team from their own country while you twiddle thumbs, counting the days until the flyers take on the lslanders for the 30th time this year or get an exciting once-every-three years matchup with the dallas stars.

btw fridays game is set for 3 and will be live on nbc in the entire country plus online. i assume its the same for the medal round game. and it only took them 2 weeks to figure that out.

[Diomedes]

god forbid people should support their country.

you gotta admit, it's kind of silly.

[MDS]

yea, especially for someone who makes 90k a year of tax payer $ to post race-bating comments on eagles message boards.
