Olympics Report -Day 4

Some random thoughts and observations from Day 4...

-Canada sucks at water polo. I'm watching Montenegro hand us a whoopin' in the pool.
-Apparently they have yellow cards in water polo, as the Canadian coach (?) just got one.
-Canada is also not very good at field hockey. At least the Canadian men aren't. They lost in that today as well.
-Field hockey is a girl's sport.
-Apparently the fireworks in the broadcast of the opening ceremonies were visual effects.
-CBC is a showing lots of the Olympics live on their website which is very cool (how else would I get to see Canada blow at water polo?) but it is strange to watch these sports with no commentary.
-Canada is currently behind, among many other powerhouses of world sport, Azerbaijan, North Korea, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan and Zimbabwe.

Funny. Just the other day I too said that field hockey was a girl's sport. People thought I was crocked. Weird. Great minds, etc...
