It's still much ado about nothing.

I assure you I thought of that all by myself.
Here's something on a lighter note from Olympics hockey. I actually saw this.
MSNBC's Olympic Update show aired a live phone interview with a guy claiming to be Ryan Miller, the U.S. goalie. He talked about making 42 saves in the win over Canada because "everything just clicks sometimes," and he went on to say that ""we're feeling very confident." Further, he said the U.S. team was "almost guaranteeing" a win tomorrow.
It was a prank!
Later that evening, during a news program, an MSNBC reporter at the Olympics interrupted the program to chat with the real Ryan Miller, who said friends and agents had been calling and texting him asking he had really "become that cocky." He said, no, "I'm really laid back." The prank was revealed, MSNBC apologized, and Ryan Miller said, "no problem, I appreciate a good prank."
