I'm feeling the Olympic spirit now.




In your face USA. Slovakia beat Latvia 6-3 in men's hockey a couple days ago. US tied Latvia. Slovakia is therefore better than the US of A. Also Slovakia beat Russia 5-3 in an up-set one Russian compared to the loss at the 1980 Miracle on ice. Read this:
Numerous coaches in the Olympic tournament talked about how dangerous Slovakia could be. Russia quickly found out why. (Read the whole story here.
)
Saturday is USA vs. Slovakia.

Sorry for the unpatriotic spirit but I'm a sucker for small, eastern European countries that I used to live in. Also, in snowboard cross last night, the US won gold with a Slovak just half a board behind winning the silver medal (good news for JD).
