- Both curling teams. Both of them played their hearts out. One was a little lacking in strategy. The other was a break or two from playing for gold, and still managed to take down the first medal USA has ever won in curling.
- Apollo Ohno – he may look like a hotshot, but the guy comes out and gives it his all. When he finished third in one of the races, he had the class to admit that two guys were better than him that night. What else is there to say?
- The rest of the mens hockey team. Sure, they only won one game. Realistically, though, they were the 5th or 6th best team in the olympics, and they played right up there with the best. They battled hard the whole way and made us proud. Especially the 44-year-old defenseman.
- Sasha Cohen – She fell twice and barely winced. She fought hard and earned a tough silver medal.
- Joey Cheek – He won two speedskating medals and will carry the US Flag in closing ceremonies. Also: “After winning gold in the 500, Cheek announced that he would donate his USOC bonuses to the children’s charity organization Right To Play, of which four-time Olympic gold medalist in speedskating Johann Olav Koss is the president and CEO.”
- Scott Baird – the oldest olympian ever and, as of today, the oldest olympic medal winner, as the US Men’s curling team takes Bronze.
