> Speed skating is rapidly becoming my number two favorite Winter Olympic sport. The whole Australian thing did rock. And though I live in the US, after we broke over 20+ medals, I started rooting for other teams just so we wouldn't hog them all. The U.S. could stand a little humility from time to time, after all...
We (Britain) managed our best Winter Olympics haul since 1936 with an entire 3 medals! Woohoo! And one of them was a gold, as well! People are suggesting that we ought to build training facilities for some of these sports, because then we might be able to do even better.
On the other hand, we have the best Olympic attendance record in the world. That's got to count for something.
