It was an idiotic post. I guess I can say that y'all suck so bad as athletes compared to america that you have to pick the one sport that as a whole america doesn't really care about compared to basketball, football, baseball to be good at. You guys just realized that Americas top athletes don't play hockey so maybe yalls top athletes should play hockey!

      As mentioned in my previous post, the US enjoys about a 10:1 population advantage over Canada. That would suggest there are maybe 10x(?) the number of people who have pro level athletic skills.

        Yes...none of them play hockey....b/c none of them care about hockey....only Americans playing hockey couldn't cut it in other sports or had rich parents that took them to the ice at 5am everyday..

              That's right down the street from my condo in Marina Del Rey. Come spend any weekend on Venice beach. Dime a dozen. But I will say that Canada does have some very beautiful woman. Vancouver is one of my favorite cities. Very high percentage of pretty woman and very few guys with game.

                    Not sure why guys get excited when they have no chance anyway.

                    No actual hot girl with fake will waste a minute on 99.999999999% of guys unless they are millionaires.

                    Same way getting excited about ferrari's....

                    good thing the average guy thinks every girl is hot unless she's fat.

                      it's not that hard to get a somewhat hot looking broad in Venice or Marina Del Rey area...I live about 5 miles away from that guy and can tell you that that area is packed with broke models and actresses wannabes...buy them a few drinks and you should be good to go

                        If that's the case why didn't you start a thread telling everyone to go all in on Canada?! Instead the US line kept falling down down down. Shouldn't you sharps have bet on Canada based on your superior skills of observation?

                        You're trying to say the US couldn't find guys who "really cared" from say Minnesota, NY, Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois, Wash, N. Dakota??!! All kids who grew up eating snow? The population of those states is more than all of Canada combined. The worst loser is a sorry one...Canada won this time, they might very well lose next time. Don't be silly with it all making dumbass excuses though.

                                            Thanks Deuce. Please keep spreading the good word. Especially needed on this forum as it seems that those who are responsible for all the greatness that is the USA post here. Not only that but they seem to be in charge of not just foreign policy but, considering all the threats, the military as well.

                                                        The average chinaman is the size of a flyweight boxer.

                                                        Not a good comparison, squiddy.

                                                            Not soccer.
                                                            Not ping pong.
                                                            Not badminton.
                                                            Not rugby.
                                                            Not track.
                                                            Not cricket.


                                                            Take out the negros and football/basketball is on this list too.

                                                            So you are left with 250 million people with a lot of money who suck at everything except maybe swimming and lose to 3rd world countries with 10% of the population.

                                                            Embarrassing.

                                                            Same for Canadians bragging about andrew wiggins, he ain't fucken canadian.

                                                            US will take over hockey in the future based on projections/population. Canada is going down in numbers and 3rd world filth will be the majority of the population while canadians are bred out. Not a bright future.

                                                                No its because when american kids have a dream its very rarely ping pong , cricket, etc. You know this to be true but you will skate around it. I have no friends who ever cared about those sports. Our top athletes are not in those sports. If they were, yes we would own that stuff too. At the end of they day nobody in america cares about those sports.

                                                                  Opie, 1/2 the best players on American teams, even your precious Stars are Canadians.
                                                                  Same goes for the Jays. Yeah Canada won the World Seires but there wasn't a Canadian player on the roster.
                                                                  MOstly Americans.

                                                                  Americans really don't give a about hockey. When I'm at the tables in Vegas all they want to talk about is College Ball & N.F.L.
                                                                  And let's be honest, these are the most efficient markets that are probably the most bet on.
