Watched women's figureskating, among other things, with my fiance yesterday. Joannie Rochette's routine was quite moving, given her circumstances. When I'm not rooting for the US, I don't need any more reasons to root for Canada. But that was a good one.
Guess not, there was a bunch of people there cheering and a band all dressed in traditional Austrian clothes. It was a surprise when I arrived, thats for sure
The idea that your vote is a moral statement about you or who you vote for is some backwards ass libertarian nonsense. Your vote is about society. Vote to protect the vulnerable.
This game is why I hate single elimination hockey.

Sportscentre just showed a closeup of the camera and it still shows red and no white.
What probably happened is that the overhead camera is on an angle and the puck is actually in the air not fully crossed the line rather than on the ice.
For those who may not know, the hockey rule is that the entire puck must be visibly across the goal line for it to be called a goal. If part of the puck is still on the red line, it is not a goal.

I just assumed it was like basketball where if the shot is away before they buzzer it counts.

Ohkay, new feed. The World Feed that the IIHF uses shows the clock hitting 0.0 while the puck is clearly still on the red line. Hence the no goal.

If they get to 1-0 then I'll raise my expectations on a swiss win.
