WOOT! WOOT! Slovakia knocks the US for a loop in a 2-1 victory this afternoon! From Sports Illustrated:
Slovakia (3-0) strengthened its first-place hold in the Olympics Group B, moving two points ahead of Russia and Sweden and three in front of the Americans (1-1-1). The top four in the six-team group move on to the quarterfinals...(Highlights from the first goal)...
Hossa got away from Craig Conroy along the right-wing boards and cut into the right circle. Once he had space and a good angle, he let a shot fly that got between DiPietro's pads.
That sent the chanting, horn-blowing and music-playing fans dressed in red, white and blue -- the Slovakian kind -- into a roaring frenzy.
I am excited about this. It really looks like this Slovak team could be a gold meadal contender this year. Also here is the link to the full story about the Slovakia-Russia game.

oh...tear...the Olympics are over now. I guess that means we have to get back to real life! What'd ya think though? Whistler olympics in 4 years? A huge group from our church should go! :)
Uhh, I didn't know the olympics were happening. Opps!
Congrats to your Slovakian-ness!
Correction: Not all Americains go around with their clothes on. Besides it is in the garden when people go around in their skivves. Thanks H for commenting so often.
