Well, Finland knocked the Russkies out of the men's ice hockey medal round with a 3-1 win. Tuukka Rask stood on his head in goal for the Finns: 37 saves! :thumb:

Chose Central time because it includes the geographical center of the USA and the North American Continent.

Finland is much prettier -- the lake district is spectacular -- and its women are hotter, better educated and have all their teeth. :nod:

People forget, but Finland was the team that the US beat in 1980 to win the gold.

I've seen some ugly Finn chicks. I think Russian chicks are hotter, so long as you catch them before 40. They go downhill quickly after that. Babushka ladies in waiting.

Medal Count, currently. Looking like a four-horse race, but I wouldn't necessarily count the Canucks or the Krouts out just yet:

COUNTRY Gold Silver Bronze Totals
Russia 6 9 7 22
Netherlands 6 7 9 22
United States 7 4 10 21
Norway 9 4 7 20
Canada 4 9 4 17
Germany 8 3 4 15

I dunno. Something with NBC in the title, most likely. I can't watch it at work. Keep the updates coming.

Finland was never a part of the Soviet Union. It was under Russian control for a time after Sweden relinquished control in 1809 at the end of the Finnish War, but became independent during the Bolshevik Revolution.

Finland and Russia fought wars from 1939-1944. Russia currently occupies part of Finland (given to Russia post WWII) and the Russian occupation of Karelia, Petsamo and Salia remain sore subjects to the Finns
