A US first grade teacher explains to her class that she is an American. She asks her students to raise their hands if they are American too. Not really knowing why but wanting to be like their teacher, their hands explode into the air like flashy fireworks. There is, however, one exception. A girl named Kristin has not gone along with the crowd. The teacher asks her why she has decided to be different. "Because I am not an American." "Then", asks the teacher, "What are you?". "I'm a proud Canadian," boasts the little girl. The teacher is a little perturbed now, her face slightly red. She asks Kristin why she is a Canadian. "Well, my mom and dad are Canadians, so I'm a Canadian too. "The teacher is now really upset. "That's no reason," she says loudly. "What if your mom was a crappy hockey player, and your dad was a crappy hockey player? Would that mean that you're a crappy hockey player too?"
A pause, and a smile. Then, says Kristin, "Nope! That'd mean I'm an American!"

The fact of the matter still remains that the US played above expectations and the Canadians played below expectations regardless of winning the gold.

I was just thinking that I really wouldn't mind being the second best IN THE WORLD at something substantive.

When I'm doing something that I love, I quite frankly don't care about my world ranking.

Nope. Likely not. I also don't tend to hold others' accomplishments up as my own
