It's time to panic

The team that once started out ahead has lost its momentum.

No, I'm not talking about the Kerry campaign. I'm talking about the USA hockey team, who dropped another game, this time to Russia, 3-1. While the USA don't appear to have any problems with goaltending like everyone predicted, they do have problems scoring goals.

We have to win against Slovakia tonight. But then, considering how we played against Russia, perhaps it would be better to lose and hope to get a first-round game against Canada.
