Honestly, I wasn't even aware that women played hockey until this Olympics, but I've never really been a fan of the winter Olympics anyhow.

Just looked and they've been doing it since 1998. That makes sense. I paid a lot more attention when I was a kid and that was the year after I graduated high school.

Congrats on the win Brenda.

Huh. I thought the women started playing before '98. Shows you how much I remember.

Thanks. That means Canada is now into the medal round. Don't think we've ever made a clean sweep of things before. I would have to look that up.

If there's one good thing about being 68 and having to pee every five minutes, it's that I woke up last night at 12:15 am, just in time to watch Nathan Chen win the Gold for America in ice skating. He was amazing, doing 7 or 8 quads and not falling. The Japanese skater Hanyu who had won 2 Olympic Golds in a row did nothing but fall down. Kinda sad to see. And I saw the women's snowboarding half-pipe where American Chloe Kim won her 2nd Gold medal. Thanks to the man above for enlarged prostates!

Perhaps you are using a Chinese or Libtard numbering system. But I will now edit this list with Real World, commonplace numbering:

PLACE BY SHEER MEDAL COUNT:
1. Austria 13
2. Norway 12 (Tied with Canada)
2. Canada 12 (Tied with Norway)
4. Russia 11
5. USA 10
6. Germany 9
7. Netherlands 8 (Tied with Italy)
7. Italy 8 (Tied with Netherlands)
9. Sweden 7 (Tied with Japan)
9. Japan 7 (Tied with Sweden)
11. China 6 (Tied with France)
11. France 6 (Tied with China)
13. Slovenia 5
14. Switzerland 4

Anyway:

Kinda curious how whenever a Chinese competitor is about to win Medal, all of the Olympians better than them are suddenly forced to take a covid test, and then the results are negative for covid, so then they are arrested and hauled off to concentration camp prison, and are starved for weeks, in order to make way for the rightful China Medalist.
When that fails, the highest level athletes are suddenly and mysteriously disqualified for wearing the exact same uniform as all of the prior heets.

I'm sure it is all fair and Sportsmanship.

Your numbering is bullshit. I'm only posting the alternative because that's how Brenda likes to count the medals.

Gold is the only thing that matters, and the rest are just tie breakers.
