I didn't want to stir the puddin' but wanted to get everyone’s opinions on the Olympics.

I thought that this was the best Olympic team the U.S. has ever had. However, I couldn't help notice that of the U.S. Gold Medal winners representing our nation there were only 3 that I could count that actually placed their hand over their heart and just about as many actually sang the national anthem.

I noticed that many people from other countries that won Silver or Bronze actually put their hand over they heart out of respect when the U.S. national anthem was played.

Great athletic team, but do we need to work on our patriotic and ethics skills?
