paulwalderman90 ::: Favorites this is the greatest upset in the history of sports. the Soviets were the best hockey team of all time until this game. Its the Cold War on Ice the United States vs the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. 07-08-23 17:54:42 _____________________________________________________
EKFalconfootball ::: Favorites They didn't get the gold medal for beating the Soviets, they won the Gold medal over Finland 4-2 07-08-23 17:27:41 _____________________________________________________
davemfeljude ::: Favorites brilliant effort, no doubt. most impressive is the commentator's decision to shut the hell up and the russians' lining up for handslaps (admitedly in a rather desultory fashion) after the final whistle. I seriously doubt any usa team would do that now if they went down as red hot favoutites. you know it's true. here's a test for the usa usa usa types...did they receive their gold medals straight after the game, or the next day? 07-08-23 07:05:32 _____________________________________________________

trachembrod ::: Favorites this game was not televised live. the outcome was already known and then televised nationally on a tape delayed basis but still didnt take away from the excitement. never since anything like it. the cold war, hostage crises, soviets in afghan. etc. it truly was a game that transcended sport and was for a time united in true sense. 07-08-04 00:49:12 _____________________________________________________
