Olympic Snafus
Today there were two surprising results for US female competitors. First of all the Swedish hockey team beat the US in a shootout in the semi-final. This is a pretty massive upset because generally Canada and the US massively outclass everyone else, but I guess their goalie was phenomenal. Sweden will play Canada in the final, who will likely crush them.
Another story that is somewhat amusing is in snowboardcross event that featured two Canadians in the final. An American led for basically the entire race, a racing in which two Canadians fell badly, but near the end of the race she tried to do a minor trick, ended up wiping out and the person far behind her passed her and she ended up with silver.
