We’re taking heat in the international press for the Games being “a disorganized Olympics”; I disagree.

I’m not saying gloss over everything because it’s Canada, but rather because I don’t see it.  

Executing an event of this magnitude reqires a ridiculous amount of details, logistics, and the like.  Think about the last dinner party you threw and times that by a billion.  

Some things are going to go awry – how could they not – but if you were to judge these Games based on a smile-o-metre, then it’s a success.

Meet some of Canada’s biggest sports journalists today: Steve Buffery, Steve Simmonds and David Langford.

They’re calmer than me about this whole Olympic experience.  

For the first time Canada is aggressively going after the podium, and we excel at the new sports – such as ski cross – because we’re early-adopters.  Email me or yell hi when you see me on the street!

Open eyes, walk out door, get coffee, read paper.  I’m gonna miss this.

Yesterday I learned that turns out I’m writing for BC’s third largest newspaper, what?! Bigger than The Globe, the National Post, omg.

I’m gonna miss this routine.
