| Did Canada win the hockey game with the US? (Clearly I didn't follow Olympics that much). I understand the loser gets to keep Bieber. | |

HA! Spirit, that was a billboard here in Chicago!! Did you see it? It was hilarious!!!!! So mad at Canada for winning because now WE have to keep Beiber!!! Go Jonathon! Though I honestly do not care who wins. Blackhawks will get medals no matter what and some new ones getting gold would be awesome! They must rule in Canada because in my real life nobody seems to give a hoot about anything but the opening and closing ceremonies None of my daycare parents are watching anything but a little of the skating. So controversies or not that seems to be what the USA cares most about - at least in my neck of the woods. Not a lot of curling fans here on this side of the border | |

| Your loss! Winter sports rule. There is much less interest here for the summer Olympics.
I found that billboard rather tacky. | |

| Aw, it was just for fun. Summer Olympics seems more popular in my area. I only watch the gymnastics, but I do know people interested in track and in the diving. Diving gets boring to me. Gymnastics is pretty interesting though. The only thing Rob, Eric or Justin have ever watched in Olympics is hockey. Even my first husband only watched the hockey games. I guess maybe you have to be really into sports to watch lots of it. Too bad there is no Olympic football | |

| Great Game and so happy Jonathan and Sid finally scored.
I thought the billboard was funny as was the bet between Obama and Harper. Looser hade to send the winner a case of beer for each team, women's and men.
FC real football is in the Olympics. Some call it soccer and mow Rugby will be making it's firth appearance in the upcoming summer Olympics. | |

| Well Jonathan Kraft was on the radio talking about Football in the Olympics and how there is a push to add it and that is USA Football.
FC, Frankly FC I have no idea why USA Football is called Football. It is not played with the feet. It should be called passball. or slamball. I can see why soccer is called football as it is played with their feet. No one but the goalie can touch the ball with their hands.
I would love both USA Football and European Football (soccer) in the Olympics. Big fan of both games. | |

| We won Gold mow with both men and women in Curling and Hockey!!! What a weekend
Rugby resembles Football, there is passing and kicking and the ball is a similar shape!
I can't see American or Canadian style football a shot enough countries play it. That's why softball and baseball didn't last in The Olympics.
With soccer and rugby many South America, European and Asian countries play it as well as North American. | |

| Totally! They stuck to their plan and showed what they are capable of!!
There was just a nice hug between Toews and Crosby. I hope I can get a picture of that.
I have to say I am sad for Steven Stamkos though. He should have been there.
