Canadian men's hockey team lost and exited the tournament without gold; not even a medal!
Suddenly, the olympics have meangingless. I couldn't believe it and still have a hard time admitting it. I didn't even have the courage to watch the last minute of the game as the seconds ticked down and the faces that only four years ago were singing the national anthem with gold around their necks, now hung in despair.
I changed channels because CBC news began to show the game highlights and player reactions.
Too many questions, too long a wait. Another four years.
