Well I'll say this.

Almost anything is possible.

Just not probable.

Realizing certain things arent probable.....doesnt make one a sexist. Unless they are presenting it from a sexist belief. Which doesnt seem to be the case (although I didnt read every single post).

So.....another silver for Canada today! Nice.
Price is starting the game tomorrow.

How did the womens hockey team look today against the US....I wasnt able to see the game.

- Fakepartofme



I only saw the third on my phone while at work...they dominated that period, kept the US hemmed in and generated numerous quality chances. The US had nothing going until the final 2 minutes when they pulled their goalie.

actually the average female size is gaining on the average male

its called adaptation.. women arent just staying home and birthing children anymore.. so they are adapting to a more work oriented lifestyle

we are animals.. we change.. slowly.. but we do.

its absurdity at its finest to believe things will stay the same as they always have been

- Dozzer




I believe men will always be bigger, faster and stronger than women.

That's not being sexist. It's how we are built.

The womens game was good, back and forth.


Canada is totally far superior, but that is just my opinion.

Ive been hearing that the US womens team is by far the fastest in the tourny.
How'd they look?

How does it feel coming in after all the poop has gone down, rather than leading the charge in causing it...???

50 minutes of canadian domination.... both on the ice and in the spreadsheet.
went up 2-1 half way through the 3rd then started to let up and protect the lead. still got some chances although they werent as agressive on the forecheck... us scored late, but the win was never in doubt after they took the lead.

In all honesty, pretty damn equal. But I only watched about 15 minutes.

The problem is you have a closed mind to only your views....the fact that you want to start banning people because they don't agree with or think the way you do is assinine.

Good.
I hope the canucks come back with the same fight in the gold medal game.
The US will be looking for revenge.

They should put a wig on Phil and let him go instead of his sister. I bet the US wins then

And if I believe that it is virtually impossible in the next 100 years, that makes me no better than the racists who thought blacks were inferior?
- Atomic Wedgie


yes.

in my mind. yes. sorry.

there are lots of players in the NHL who avoid contact with skill which essentially defeats your entire argument.

the greatest player ever to play the game was one of them actually.. all 185 lanky pounds of him

I don't think these teams could be any closer in terms of talent.

It's what makes it such a good rivalry.

I want the men's team to win gold - I look forward to each game.

I hate the US women's team. I absolutely hate them.

I'm wondering if it's like the old Canada-USSR rivalry - we didn't know them, so it was much easier to hate them.

Kinda hard to hate Team USA (men) with Kessel and JVR on the team.

But the women?

I effing hate them.

Nice photo, Alfy!

He's really nailed the sex offender with a hint pedophile look.

It's fact....it's life...someone needs to deal with it. Woman may catch up to yesterdays man physically....but to suggest they will be physically equal to men of the same era someday is just not true.

"i am going to put this out there right now

anyone mocking the idea of women making the NHL some day will be banned immediately

i will not have sexism on these boards... get the (frank) over yourselves you chauvinistic douches.

its entirely possible ... who the hell knows what training methods they will come up with in the future.

dippoops."
