Me too. Those players did nothing wrong. And the IOC... talk about the pot calling the kettle black.

No problem. They sang their anthem over the olympic one. Was a great sight to behold. Over half the stadium was Russian.

Great tournament for Germany. I really hope this gets more people into the game. But money is the big issue here.
I don't partake in pride over accomplishment of others, but I'm deeply satisfied. Satisfied that we beat Sweden and Canada. Satisfied that we made history and put a mark on the hockey landscape.

All in all, the final went down as it had to. But 4-3 in OT? They did great, absolutely great. Now German media may ruin it with their rhetoric and over-saturation, or milking of the emotions, it's what we do.

Also Datsyuk with the triple gold, can't be mad about that. Shesty looked a little disappointed getting a medal without playing a minute.

I only know one Dutch person in real life. He's obnoxious. :laugh:

But we've been friends for 10 years.

I hate Dutch people. And that sounds weird, since I am Dutch myself. I just never felt like a Dutchman. I always felt more like a global citizen. Not tied to 1 country. After growing up in the Netherlands, I lived in Denmark, Luxembourg, South Africa and now Austria.

Why? Is it the wooden shoes?


It’s the wooden shoes, isn’t it?

The Dutch are entitled whiny people who think they are the best at everything. Whenever I meet Dutch people here in Vienna, I tell them I am South African. Saves me a whole conversation about shit they miss about "home". Even my technicians caught on to this and tell everyone I am South African haha

Don't forget, this is a team that lost in OT. You expect them to be disappointed but the joy of their best ever result weighs heavier than the disappointment of missing the gold
