Flotrack news and links for February 21st, 2014
Happy Friday Flotrack! Congratulations, Canada. You got your first "victory" over the U.S. since you burned down the White House in 1814. But I swear to all that is holy, if the U.S. men lose to the Canadians today in hockey, I will post a running tally of how many wins Team USA gets over Team Canada this weekend at the USATF Indoor Championships. See above for the stakes.
And now the "news"

Oh, wait, you're serious. Let me laugh even harder.
Cue The Fray.
