\"Canada_Olympic_g_506303gm-a\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Our beloved benefactor, mentor, moral rudder, and all round inspiration for what we do here day in and day out, Bob Denham, sends us this congratulatory Skeltonic:<\/p>\n

A moose, a beaver, maple leaf!
\nCanada is now the champ!<\/p>\n

Crosby and his skating buddies
\nRevved it up another amp.<\/p>\n

Barack lost a case of Molson.
\nDenham lost a Norrie stamp<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Looks like all those U.S. skaters
\nNeed a bit more hockey camp.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I’ll leave to others who know the subtleties of the game better than I do, but it sure looked like it could have easily gone the other way — as sweet as that particular victory was, especially given that Canada finished first in the gold medals standing, the most ever won by a host nation.\u00a0 The American team was great and will certainly be a contender four years from now.\u00a0 And the Russians and Swedes will no doubt be resurgent.\u00a0 It’s so nice that it’s both our game and that we don’t completely own it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
