    1. Stick with counting the Golds for starters, and then chew on this. One tenth the population, and yet we seem to be keeping up. Hm.....

  4. Hey Don, only on american TV do they count total medals. In the rest of the world they count Golds first. That means the Americans are in 4th place. Just sayin'

    1. The US has a population of 317 million to pick athletes from while Canada has 35 million. That is a factor of almost ten.

  11. Great rivalry that only sport can deliver. I still have difficulty accepting the fact that multimillionaire hockey players are considered - by many - to be Olympians. They don't fit into the Olympian definition. It seems this could be the last Olympics featuring NHL hockey players. The NHL owners no longer wish to lend their players to the event.

  12. "...So awesome" - and yet you run out of there below borders every winter - the only ice you see from Canada is on TV. Congratulations! ;-)

    1. True John but we put in our time in the frozen north! We once had to dig down about five feet to find the roof of one of our mountaintop microwave sites. Now I prefer watching it on TV.
