Canada - Groves Nesbitt Speedsters

Always nice to see some medals coming home from a competition. Well done!

I didn't realize that speed skating was a sport! Do they give medals for that? The real question is should they? I am sure they will add moose wrestling as a "sport" next time so that Canada can get one more medal.

Does that make 2 medals that the Canadians have won?

Actually that would be bear wrestling ... moose steaks are used in our best past time sport beer drinking at a BBQ.

Yah, I am sure you all would leave the more tame stuff like wrestling a thousand pound bull moose to your children. Not really worth your time.

Which gets back to my theory that "Canadians are a different species".

Only a thousand pounds is not yet full grown why you pick on a baby moose for? *sits and enjoys a beaver tail.*

Link to proper thread for this reply.

Yup we only win a hand full of medal but proud to earn what we get. Some times being in the middle of the pack one gets less attention good or bad.
