Olympics, My Last Words

Alright, so the Canadians had a pretty fair showing after all. They beat their medal count over Athens, but... there will still plenty of opportunities left behind. A lot of the favorites didn't perform as hoped and it was often the underdogs who did. I'm not sure what that means. Why did van Koeverden place 8th in a race that he was expected to medal in, yet we had a mountain biker who placed 4th that wasn't expected to be close to a medal? Maybe this is typical and I haven't paid close enough attention in the past.

In any case, well done all of Canada's Olympic athletes. Let's hope the dialog continues now that the games are over.
