I love figure skating so much grace. Keep your eye on Kimie Miessener, our little Olympian from BelAir, Maryland, approx. 30 mins. north of Baltimore, she is amazing.

well, we had a great day for the Netherlands.
just like yesterday.
Ladies Speedskating 3 km gave us a gold and silver medal.
It is surprising that we seem to have a new generation already.
2 19 year olds gave us a great surprise.
Very exiting races to watch, great tv.
And to add to the fun, our crownprince and his wife were there with their two little kids.
it was so much fun to see Maxima and their youngest having so much fun.

Men's downhill is on at 8pm tonight. Can't wait to watch it, even when the results are already known.
Right now I am watching 2 of my favorite teams play hockey(this match up is my favorite rivalry too) Colorado vs Detroit.

So you wanna pick a fight huh? #moan#
Of the original 6, who is your team? I have to admit I've rotated between a few of them over the years:
-Montreal was my team for years(around 1970-1985)
-Boston became my team in 1985 when I moved there
-NYR became my team when I moved there (I still wear a NYR lanyard at school)
-Detroit is my favorite team to watch(followed by NJ and Colorado)
-Chicago and Toronto :-[

montreal and boston are the best!!!! i grew up watching the rangers, but i was always a montreal and boston fan. living near toronto, i have no choice but to hate the red wings! hockey doesn't belong south of the mason dixon line. do you agree?
petra, the netherlands is ahead of canada in amount of medals! speed skating will be a toss up between holland and canada i think :).

montreal and boston are the best!!!! Um, of all the teams in hockey those are THE two that cannot be spoken in the same sentence! In fact, if you said Boston Bruins in Montreal you better have that dagger of yours handy, and the same is true about Montreal while in Boston. If they introducted hockey in Cuba I'd support it. Hockey is awesome. |

My heart goes out to Michelle Kwan, how sad. I really respect this young lady, I think she made the right decision. Boy, that had to be tuff. O.k., Kimmie, the pressure is on, make us more proud of here in Maryland!!

Robin:
Then you know the NJ Devils are the Colorado Rockies! Remember the rainbow jersies? Robim Williams on Mork and Mindy used to wear one on that show too.
