lots of baseball. interleague play is happening. for 3 or 4 years it was always east vs east, west vs west, and central vs central. mlb decided to switch it around to where, lets say, the al east play the nl west, or the al central play nl east or whatever. that way interleague stays fresh and going. as far as the nba finals, detroit won sunday, the lakers won tuesday and detroit won tonight. so the detroit pistons lead the la lakers 2 games to 1. hard to say how long the series will go. a cool thing happened to me, too. trooper has a online trivia contest. going on. the recent contest that ended last week, i ended up winning the cutoff was june 2. i, obviously entered earlier, found out by email and i got an autographed cd entitled "flying colors" in the mail yesterday (after i sent them my mailing address).i was pretty happy. i think the winner (me) will be officially announced next week. ill find out eventually.
Ice hockey at the 1980 winter Olympics
This tournament went from February 12-24, 1980. 12 teams played. The Olympic Fieldhouse and Olympic Arena hosted the games. Canada hockey team returns and finishes 6th. Tournament best remembered for the "miracle on ice" as the United States beat the Soviet Union before beating Finland to win gold. They had also beat Czechoslovakia and tied Sweden. Their roster fielded exclusively amateur players. The United States, as mentioned, won gold, Soviet Union the silver and Sweden the bronze. Next is the 1984 tournament in Sarajevo Yugoslavia (now Bosnia and Herzegovina 🇧🇦).
