Crowds cheered; the stadium filled with the home crowd erupted as Sydney Crosby scored the winning goal in the final game of the Olympic men's hockey tournament. Interesting how we identify with a team that in some way represents your country. I was delighted with the win, but do find it odd that these over paid athletes are competing in what once was an amateur event. So many athletes in other sports live near the poverty line.

So many moments over the last couple of weeks to witness happiness among the many medal winners and also among those who reached a personal best. It has been inspiring to watch. Thanks to all the athletes. This is for all of you.
