the mad sports man

 Meghan Oldham has Canada's second bronze, this one in snowboarding slopes style. Two bronze so far at these games.

 It was Seattle Seahawks from the start. Took to the 4th quarter to get some touchdowns. Jason Myers had 5 field goals - a super Bowl record. Defense had 7 sacks and caused 5 turnovers. A complete game. The Seahawks beat the New England Patriots 29-13 to win Super Bowl LX and their second ever one.  Congratulations to the Seahawks.

 Valerie Maltais has Canada's first medal, and it's bronze in the women's 3000m speed skating medal. Nice way to start.

 The cauldron has been lit. Speeches have been made. The parade of nations were 92 nations long. The opening ceremony was pretty good, spread out through four locales.  The lighting of the cauldron was one of the neater ways of lighting.  The games have officially underway. Enjoy the next 16 days.

 The two replacements are Victor Primeau and Skye Clarke, replacing Alexandre Duchaine and Olivia Asselin due to injuries to Duchaine and Asselin.  The addition is Olivia Bouffard-Nesbitt in cross country skiing. 

 The flag bearers for Canada are Marielle Thompson and Mikael Kingsbury. Great choices I think. Winter Olympics are a week from Friday.
