Well, that was just sort of a general cheer. I'm patriotic, but I don't actually keep good track of the rugby.
Where's the praising and extolling of my virtues? Where's the love?

Me neither helentm - as a Canadian we've just been getting updates on how badly our team is being beaten. We have no expections of winning against New Zealand.

Well, it's not like it's a major sport for you guys, right?
What are your big sports? I know about the ice-hockey, but what else?

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Any word on the Booker Prize winner yet?

Heh. Go us. Not that I imagine I'll ever get around to actually reading his book.

Here we just call it "hockey". Our other national sport is actually Lacrosse though curling is a national passion.

Art Crawl!!!
So, just saw the 7th episode season 2 of MI-5 (Spooks) and it's the one with the kid with the photographic memory. They subtitled his dialogue and that of his brother and their friend (partner?). Was this just a special thing for the US showing?

Strawberry disappointment.
Oh God please let the All Blacks beat England.

Yes! How insulting. (To the Americans watching as much as anyone.)
