WHEN POLITICS CRUSH OLYMPIC DREAMS
Linda Cornelius Waltman will probably be watching the Opening Ceremonies of the Olympic Games in Vancouver next month. Like while watching all Olympic Games since 1980, she will likely feel a pit in her stomach for what she missed out on as a member of the 1980 U.S. Olympic Pentathlon Team.

MATT DUNIGAN OR ROGER DALTREY? WHO ARE YOU?
For a while now, I’ve been banging my head against the wall - I’m onto my third hockey helmet - trying to figure out who former CFL great QB and current TSN analyst Matt Dunigan looks like. And then bang! It hit me. Make that, I hit it (good thing because the helmet cracked again). [...]
Juan Manuel Lopez And Yuriorkis Gamboa Are On A Collision Course
Juan Ma(nuel) Lopez (28-0, 25 KOs) and Yuriorkis Gamboa (17-0, 15 KOs) are not just interesting-sounding names.

Look no further than their impressive wins this past weekend to understand [...]

HOCKEY GOLD IS NOT THE ONLY PATH TO OLYMPIC SUCCESS FOR CANADA
By Beaker
With the Olympics right around the corner, I’ve heard it be asked “will the Olympics be a failure of Canada doesn’t win a gold in men’s hockey?”
