    USA is not leading the medal count anyways.

    Oh and: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6WYRPPTVBg&feature=youtu.be

    So you only care when you win?

    USA has 27 medals to Russia's 26 and Canada's 24. I would say that is more medals and winning the count, or is my math off?

    Yes it is. Medals are weighted. Golds count more that silvers, which count more than bronze.

    Yes...and now Obama owes Harper a case of yucky American beer, and the USA must now keep Justin Bieber. Yay!!!!!!

    Puhleese, our beer beats Canadian beer any day. :laugh:

    I don't know. A good Molson, not the one filled with preservatives that you buy here but the one you get up there, is pretty damn good!
    USA guy, by the way.

    I have had Molson in Canada, it was decent. But the emergence of microbreweries and their surge in population has seriously improved American beer in the past two decades.

    I love hockey! Congrats. It was a good game. I have to pull for Sweden in the gold because of Henrik Lundqvist.

    Disclaimer: Before the jimmies get all rustled... the following is meant in jest. :laugh: Besides, I only care about American Football! :tongue:

    ....


    Hockey? Pffft! Bunch of white guys slapping around a black puck? ......no thanks.

    Now bowling on the other hand... that's a sport I can really get into! Especially when pins have red necks...

    Fun fact, medal counting is actually a thing the media made up to bring competitiveness to the Olympics. The Olympics when they were revieved were actually revived to bring all countries together, eitherway Canada won at it's sport for men's and female's. I am one happy lady :flowerforyou:

    Actually, now it's TWO cases of yucky American beer! GO CANADA!

    U.S. is leading in total medals but they seem to rank in terms of golds and that's norway (I believe Canada and U.S. are tied for golds currently? At least until we win gold on Sunday!).

    lots of butthurt on the internet right now for not caring about it

    Bit of a taunt thread, don't you think? Now if there was a thread called "Yeah Canada!" , you probably wouldn't have so much "butthurt".

    Sshh. Give them their moment.

    Uh...

    Americans typically do not drink warm beer. With the exception of some preferring their stouts warm.

    Also, have you ever had American beer?

    Exactly lol. Very predictable, and if it had been the other way round they'd be strutting like a bejewelled goat. :drinker:

    But........we Canadians still love our American cousins :flowerforyou:

    <--- American by birth and the first 30+ years of my life. Canadian resident for the last decade or so. American beer is a sad, commercial product compared to Canadian beer. And even if you want to talk about small breweries or micro breweries, Mill St. Tankhouse wins hands down. Everyone else is just dabbling.
