slow night tonight. still getting used to getting back to work. game 6 tomorrow. my computer got fixed today. had a nasty virus. got to the point to where i couldnt get to my home page or do anything except check my favorites. watched "while you were out." great episode as usual. about a month or two ago (or maybe longer i can't remember) i started watching "in a fix." that's a show where a home owner starts a reno job and takes forever to finish tp the point where the spouse calls up the in a fix crew to help the owner to finish the reno in 3 DAYS. by the time they are done, the finished job looks great. one other sports bit, smarty jones could do something that hasnt been done in 26 years. win the "triple crown" of horse racing. the 3 races or "jewels" are the kentucky derby, the preakness, and the belmont stakes. (that is the order of the races, by the way). smarty jones has won the first two. will he win the belmont? find out tomorrow along with the result of game 6 between calgary and tampa bay.
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 🇧🇦).
