Gold medals, silver medals, all medals, it doesn’t matter how you count it up, the Canadians – with just 30 million people – are eating our lunch (probably a chicken noodle soup and a grilled panini from Tim Hortons). Then to quench their thirst they are going to that sweet beer fridge they brought over that only opens if you have a Canadian passport.

Yeah, Canada is cool. The U.S. is not, at least not yet. There’s time and more events and hockey and all of that, but thus far, the Canadians are on a roll, extending their hot streak from the Vancouver Games and winning and winning and winning.

Well, this Own the Podium thing keeps going and going, as relentless and annoying as Justin Bieber. Own the Podium? Look Canada, North America isn’t big enough for two egomaniacal, boastful countries that claim ownership over communal property. Stop stealing our act.
IMO only Gold medals should count, its still really early into the games and most countries up top not far apart each other in Golds. No competitive athlete sets out to be the second or third best. Ask the Broncos how they felt being second best or the Canucks in 2011 how it felt only winning the Presidents Trophy and West title.
On another note, anyone else liking team Canada mens hockey over 5.5 goals vs Norway and Russia/Slovenia game over 6.5? Looks solid to me. Hit on Sweden and Switzerland regulation win today.
^As commercialized as the Olympics are, it goes against the "spirit of the games" if they were to only count Golds. Yes you're right- elite athletes generally only go there to win. But there's a large contingent of athletes who are there to just soak the atmosphere in. The medals are there for incentive, but it's hardly the only reason that athletes train to go to the Olympics (the sex all around them!)
Given the North America teams using these games to adjust to the big ice, getting 6 goals over a European team might be difficult. Unless that's 6 goals total, it's a tricky bet that I'd only take if the odds were good enough.
