What a kick in the gonads. What aweful news this is for Canada. This isn't about putting the best player in the Canadian hockey team that's going to play the US for a chance at a gold medal. It's about a good skier who qualified for an event that will be overshadowed by hockey (of course), figure skating and speed skating. He deserves to live out his olympic dreams as did the others on his team. It's a long shot the team will make a podium placing anyway and a week after the games no one will remember their names or care. If McKeever races he and the cross country team will be talked about in the next winter Olympics. Already our games have been a wild and great success, come on coaches, stop being so greedy and let one of the greatest olympic stories unfold. McKeever is a great skier and deserves to show off.
