As I mentioned in an earlier post I was rooting for Canada and it was just announced that due to some last minute wins and with only a few contests to be decided, Canada will take home the most gold medals in this Olympics. I have to say that for country that has gone for so long with no gold medals in their home country this is a big win on their part. They may not “own the podium” with the highest medal count (that will go to the USA), but this is truly something Canada can be proud of having. For me personally this is the best of both worlds.
Before you continue to read this you have to know that we are Americans. We love our country and we hope it does well. The only problem is I know the USA will do well. I want to watch the Olympics and I want to cheer for a team, and I want to cheer for a team that still has a chance. So for this Olympics I am cheering for team Canada. On Sunday, February 14th, 2010 came Canada’s first Gold home country gold. This was achieved in the Men’s Downhill Mogul Run AJ was really excited:
Anyhow, regardless of who does well we are having fun watching the Olympics. My personal favorite winter sport to watch is the ski jump. Do you have a favorite winter sport? Be sure to leave a comment.
