Rayzer32 Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Don't know if anyone here really cares about the Women's Olympic hockey team, but Finland is on the verge of an upset. Although, Canada is gonna kick the crap out of any team they face for the gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a reason why the US and Canada are always ranked 1 and 2 and the Swedes, Swiss, and Finns are a distant 3, 4 and 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ACor58 Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 THUMBS DOWN ... for the women's ice hockey. Lemme get this straight. There's no checking allowed. Body contact is permitted, but only if defenders are playing the puck, and they aren't allowed to throw their hips or shoulders into opponents. Also, female hockey players are considerably slower and less talented than men's hockey players. So to recap: Women's ice hockey is just like men's ice hockey, except the players are considerably slower and less talented, and there's no checking. Sounds like a winner. Gee, I can't believe it hasn't caught on professionally yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scribo Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 The woman player with the puck may run defenders over. Does that make up for any of the above? I didn't think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's kinda sloppy, but I like to see how the local girls are doing for their country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little wonder that it is only popular in certain parts of the US and Canada....and now with a few token teams from Northern Europe so we can call it an Olympic sport and jack up that US medal count. Yawn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't tell you that the US is up 5-3 in the 3rd. Ooopps. It's obvious no one really gives a chit about them anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
