Nashtak 0 Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Is this gonna be our only shot at beating the olympic record of 14 gold medals in a single winter olympic? This is gonna be so damn good. Link to post Share on other sites
mrdannyg 274 Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 whichever. I'd like to go 30 for 45 but will bet less if someone wants to book. I think I'm giving up some value but I'd like some action on the game. The Canadians are either too baller to book small bets, don't care to bet on their country, don't have poker monies or hate money/my avatar.We're Canadian...too polite to take your money Actually though, I rarely bother betting if I already have something to root on. No need to be doubly disappointed if I lose, and $25 is not going to compare to the joy of winning.Now, if it was even money, that'd be too good to turn away!Come, me, Rich, and Zach will be there. We can have FCHL trade talk.I'll be there!!!Just kidding, but I could go for some trade talk. Link to post Share on other sites

This is gonna be so damn good.I'm pretty sure this is the last event. The only other event is the 50km men's cross country ski mass start (on now). There are 4 canadians in the field, but I'm about as likely to win the gold in the event as they are.I had no idea we were this close to the record - I just assumed the USSR had won 30 some years. Even getting close, at home, is an absolutely amazing, historic achievement in my opinion. Link to post Share on other sites

bdc30 0 Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Also, as the games come to a close, I want to say thanks/congrats to you guys. This has been the single best thread on this entire forum that I've been a part of for as long as I can remember. No bitching, infighting, etc - AND we all made a shitload of money on the Russia/Latvia game. I've enjoyed chatting olympics with everyone and will miss the camaraderie once we all settle back in to our respective team corners next week...lol Link to post Share on other sites

Not cause we're winning gold, but because those who competed did so with incredible heart, determination and dignity.I just watched an incredible hour on CTV of medal winners being interviewed as a group, these people cant help but be genuine.I was tempted to put my whole roll on Canada, but f it, I just want to watch this game and root on my country.

Speed Limit 0 Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 This is so epic, I'm going to be cheering hard for the U.S., but I don't think I'll be overly disappointed if they lose because a silver medal was completely not expected of them this Olympics. Link to post Share on other sites

pezeveng 207 Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 I had a dream last night the US were up 2-0 early in the first than they had a 3rd goal dissallowed. The first goal was pure cheese, I actually woke up mid dream in disbelief.Weird thing was Bob Cole was calling the game. I need to quit the wacky tabacky. Link to post Share on other sites
