See? What did I say? He only mentions that stuff that makes his country look good. Did you see those total medal statistics, Klein? I am sure you did but since they don't contribute to your delusional sense of well being, you discarded them.
No, I already earlier said congrats to the most succesful winter games the uSA ever had. You brtoke a medal overall record, and we're hoping to do the same today. Sofar, only a record for the most gold any host country has ever won, and tied with old USSR and Norway at 13 gold for most at any winter olympics. Hopefully 14 today.

Games opening ceremony is most watched TV event in Canada

VANCOUVER (Reuters) – The Vancouver Olympics opening ceremony on Friday was the most-watched television event ever in Canada, Games organizers said on Saturday.
"It was the most watched TV event in history with over 13 million viewers," Games spokeswoman Renee Smith-Valade told reporters.
"It is a 29 percent increase from the previous record."
The previous top rated program was the Olympic gold medal match between winners Canada and the United States at the 2002 Salt Lake City Games, with just over 10 million viewers.
On average, 13.3 million Canadians watched the whole three-and-a-half hour ceremony at BC Place.
Airing live across 11 television networks in 11 languages, 23 million viewers, or around two in every three Canadians, tuned in to some part of the ceremony, organizers said.
Vancouver staged the first indoor opening ceremony and tapped Canada's reserves of world-famous talent, like film actor Donald Sutherland to narrate with his signature deep voice and singers k.d. lang, who sang fellow Canadian Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah," Bryan Adams and Nelly Furtado.
