The Hawks have to be a special circumstance. People talk about the woes of being a Raiders fan, but they were in a Super Bowl not too long ago. The Hawks actively screwed their fans more than most people. I don't feel too bad about "abandoning them", although I went to more games the past 10 years than I did the previous 10 years. Plus it's hockey, and always fighting for more fans, so the concept of a bandwagon just isn't the same as NFL or MLB teams.

 

 

There were many pre 84 Cub fans who resented the newer fans also. It just is part of the deal. Winning brings more fans. And dont let Red Wing fans fool anyone either, they were pretty much a non existent fan base until the early 90s, me included.

The Swiss women just gave up 4 with the hammer, ouch

And then concede.

Kind of odd to do that with two ends left after the Chinese just scored 6 in the previous two ends

But they are playing Canada on my TV. Didn't they just play each other.

My guess is Mike Milbury will not be around for the rest of the Olympic coverage...to bad because he may not always be right but at least he says things that are mildly interesting.

 

Well, Eurotrash was not enough to get him fired, he's there.

I gotta say, I've really fallen in love with this USA team. They are underdogs, but they are so young that they collectively play much better than people gave them credit for before the tournament.

Geez. 3-0!

 

I hate to draw everything back to the Blackhawks since not everyone is a Hawks fan, but this reminds me of the SJ game we had on that road trip last month, where they went out and got 3 real quick goals the first 10 minutes of the 1st period. Let's hope the comparisons stop there.

They aren't that big of underdogs, and had to be favored in this game, no? I think they were universally accepted as about 4th on the list this Olympics, and in only the Canada game have they been dogs.
