Re: Russian Hockey team out of Olympics

never realized how phallic it looked before this GIF. Does that mean I'm more immature now than when MIB came out?
We see what we want to see, Bigman. We see what we want to see.

This is good news for Team USA. Didn't want to have to play them in the gold medal game with their home ice advantage.

You talk like we are guaranteed in the finals. Don't forget that Czech and most likely Canada still stand in our way. But I do agree that playing them, which would have been in the finals, with their home crowd would have been very difficult.

Thank goodness. I did not want to play them again.

You both realize the first Semi Final is a replay the Gold Medal game from 2006; and If the USA and Canada win this afternoon the 2nd Semi is a replay of the Gold Medal game from 2010 don't you? This is the the 3rd straight Olympics they haven't won a medal. Not saying I wouldn't have been worried had we played them, but we should be just as worried about the remaining teams.

The US draw is definitely not a cakewalk. The Czech game worries me enough.
