There is summer and winter olympics, see that is what you get in a country where it rains all year, seasonal confusement

[Beskar]

Oh, the Winter Olympics basically get no press over here at all. To us, the Olympics is the big event which happens every 4 years.

Man, the hockey team better win Canada the gold again. I was so dissapointed when those Americans beat us in the championship game in the juniors; very dissapointing. And right after Eberly saved our asses, too. Jeez. I used to watch Eberle when he played for the Pats, and I have to tell you: I wasn't surprised with his sniping. He used to do it all the time.

Too bad we pawn you all then, isn't it?

Ahem, that was a pretty pathetic performance in the 15km men's cross country by the Norwegians today. I kind of felt bad for your country. What's happened? You used to be Kings of the nordic events. I hope you do better in later events. It doesn't seem like a proper Winter Olympics without Norway hauling in a boat load of medals.
