We blow at the winter games (U.S.) I mean we're not that horrible... But we kick so much more ass during the summer olympics... I love to watch the summer games, they just remind me how much better we are than the rest of the world... :woohoo:

What?!

Jester, I think your showing your Jingoistic ass here. Like all countries we sometimes excell at some sports and sometimes don't. It frequently has more to do with the individual athletes than the countries which they come from. Athough the I will grant you that the amount of money spent on training will help athletes improve, to say that the US is that much better than any other country just isn't correct. :huh:

One more thing: I saw a report on the NBC news tonight about how the US women's team has changed their training, diet, months off, etc, and when it's summer here, they go to Europe and when that gets too hot they go to S. America...How nice is THAT!?

He's from my neck of the woods. He isn't arrogant, he just refuses to tow the party line. He skis because he loves skiing and all the medals and fame don't really mean that much to him. Here's a guy that grew up poor in a house with no running water who trains himself. When he invented a better way to secure his boots to his skis, he gave the information to EVERYONE, just so he wouldn't have an unfair advantage. I think more athletes should follow his lead instead of cashing in the first time someone waves a big check in front of their face.

Take it down a couple of notches.... I was joking... Still we are still one of the most powerful teams in the summer games... Granted we put a lot of money in to it... but so do other coutries, China, Japan, Germany... In truth we probably put less in to it, compared to countries like China. The reason they put so much money in to it, is in fact, to try and beat the U.S. It's about national pride, and everybody wants to knock off the best... and since they usually seem to want to beat us, thats probably means we're the best... So in a sense, I am right, and we are the best... at the summer olympics...
But again, I really wasn't trying to be serious. I am a Jester. So try and knock off a tit of the attitude when correcting me...

Its comments like yours above that give Americans across the world a very bad name!

On a lighter note Aussies are basically crap at the Winter Games because we are a tropical nation. Although we did win a gold in something today!
