Just wanted to say that I'm proud of the Canadian atheletes, I know I wrote this thread because I was disapointed that they haven't won any medals after seven days of the games. But after that they were strong winning a total of 18 medals.

We also won a medal in Track & Field, for a lot of country that's not a big deal but for Canada it is because it's the first medal in track & field since 1996.

Just wanted to thank every athelete for giving an A+ effort, and congratulate all of them.

"How to hit home runs: I swing as hard as I can, and I try to swing right through the ball...The harder you grip the bat, the more you can swing it through the ball, and the farther the ball will go. I swing big, with everything I've got. I hit big or I miss big. I like to live as big as I can." Babe Ruth

I have to admit I am a little dissapointed.. we got to many silver.. basicly means we came short of to many golds. I was quite dissapointmed in Adam Van Kouverdan's play. 1 day he finished 2nd to last, and the next day he narrowly missed a gold medal.

I had no idea rowing sports were so popular in Canada.

Oh it's huge Echoes, we had a lot of riding on Koeverdan, it was a huge disapointment when he finished eight out of nine rowers in the 1000m. But at last he redeemed himself the next day in the 500m and won a silver medal.
