Gold Medals and a Hockey Blow out ...

Good day in Torino ...

One gold medal and a 16 to ZIP blow out in Hockey.

It bounced the Gretzky's off the front page (so too speak) - and that's a good thing ...

My only beef with the Olympics is the emphasis on medals placements. Why can't we celebrate the guy or gal who comes in 13th !!! They are 13th in the World for crying out loud !!! Let's celebrate ALL our athletes and give them a pat on the back for the hard work and dedication they've shown to be among the very best in their sport.

I'm proud on anyone who has earned a trip to the Olympics, medal or not.

Look at the teams with one or two athletes that marched into the stadium yesterday - their smiles said it all.

The lesson of the Jamaican Bob Sledding team was simply the competition, not the medal. That's the Olympic Spirit we need to emphasis ...

dayenu,
