So it took you 40 years to catch up to the USA in the game you 'own'?I'm sorry, who won both medals in the 2010 Vancouver Olympics? The most recent games?

WTF are you talking about, Marty? Canada won 6 of the first 7 gold medals. You've only ever won two. Who was catching up to who?So it took you 40 years to catch up to the USA in the game you 'own'?
In Mens hockey Canada and the USA have the same number of Gold medals since 1960. The USSR has 6 since then. Who 'owns' the sport?WTF are you talking about, Marty? Canada won 6 of the first 7 gold medals. You've only ever won two. Who was catching up to who?
Why 1960? I can pick any arbitrary cutoff I like to make the stats come out the way I want them to. Between 1994 and 2006 Sweden won twice compared to 1 for everyone else, therefor Sweden is best, right?In Mens hockey Canada and the USA have the same number of Gold medals since 1960.

From the mid 50's on the game resembled the game they play now.Why 1960? I can pick any arbitrary cutoff I like to make the stats come out the way I want them to.
By about 3000 years, yes.What's funny is saying that ice hockey os the only sport that matters.
If my history is right, the summer games have been around longer than the winter games. The old school track and field events > ice hockey.
Agreed.By about 3000 years, yes.
Truly, all Olympic sports are equally valuable, which is to say, not at all. In fact, I'd say the cheap, reflexive nationalism and jingoism they inspire gives them negative value.
But trash talking on an internet forum is more valuable, because it is fun for me, and seeing Marty squirm for technicalities is pure gold.
Kind of like this....In fact, I'd say the cheap, reflexive nationalism and jingoism they inspire gives them negative value.
Grand total and most recent winners. Ooooh yeah.:devil:
Around here? I'm the Lichtenstein of trash talking. I'm lucky if they let me walk in the parade.Agreed.
But I don't think you'd get the gold. Perhaps a bronze.
Yes, that was the point I was getting at. Full marks for you, Jim.Kind of like this....
Not so quick, buddy. Atheists eat babies too, and they're *everywhere*.Of course if you opened it up and had baby eating, Canucks would win all 3 medals every year! :angry:
Maybe you can empty the portable toilets after the opening ceremonies.Around here? I'm the Lichtenstein of trash talking. I'm lucky if they let me walk in the parade.
Cleveland Browns fans prefer this method:Why 1960? I can pick any arbitrary cutoff I like to make the stats come out the way I want them to.
They had a show on NFL Network today called Top 10 clutch QBs. The list:Cleveland Browns fans prefer this method:
League Championships 8 - 1946 (AAFC), 1947 (AAFC), 1948 (AAFC), 1949 (AAFC), 1950 (NFL), 1954 (NFL), 1955 (NFL), 1956 (NFL), 1964 (NFL)
The Steelers haven't caught up to us yet.
Don,First, these uniforms are crap. They look like garbage from some Euro reject project and everyone is laughing about them. Second, they're made in China.
So I have but one question: Why?

I blame you guys from the "Ill" state, for letting BHO get started......Very bourgeois in appeareance...Looks like a cross pollination between Starship Trooper Uniforms and Commie Red invader gear from Red Dawn with more ocean colors .....Just needs a Hammer and Sickle Badge and you are all set !

Obama picked your uniforms?Don,
Because the "Campaigner-in-Chief" wants us to look like dorks.....
