It was quite the treat to see people singing their country's national anthem without phony cymbals and unnecessary whooping Sunday afternoon.
It was Canada's national song that produced that observation. Those in the hockey arena sang as one with a certain amount of pride in their country and pride in what their hockey team accomplished.
Americans used to sing like that. But since everything in sports became a show within a show, the singing isn't necessarily welcome (unless you want to sing to yourself).

funny how you didn't mention how the woman acted after there victory a few days earlier, I think the men were pre warned about "certain behaviors" although I do agree that it was a grand sight to watch the national pride of a nation celebrating in mass, I don't think it is a reason to USA bash
Didn't see what happened after the women's game, so can't comment. There's no bashing here ... it's an observation.
