This week on Only A Game, a member of the 1980 US Olympic Hockey Team puts the Miracle Theory on ice. Also, a Vancouver wrap up, and the story of the Boston sports league that helps adolescents overcome trauma, abuse and neglect.

The Vancouver Olympics are coming to a close, but don’t worry winter sports fans, the 2014 Games in Sochi, Russia are less than half a decade away! We get a taste of the site of the next Winter Olympics, and look back at the unforgettable fashions of Vancouver.

In the 1980 Winter Olympics, the U.S. Hockey Team defeated the Soviet Union in an upset still known as the Miracle on Ice. All the same, Dave Silk, who played for the Americans, has never been comfortable with that title. He shares his thoughts on “the miracle thing” and how he’d like the game to be remembered.

Figure skating, snowboarding, and ski jumping are just a few of the sports where judges can determine the outcome of the event. Some have argued that sports like football and basketball are more pure because they’re not so subjective. Bill Littlefield thinks those fans should think again.

The Winter Olympics present millions of people with the opportunity to pay rapt attention to figure skating and bobsledding, not to mention luge, skeleton, cross-country skiing, and biathlon. All, of course, are sports…or are they? Bill Littlefield hopes you won’t accuse him of skating around that question.

The Only A Game team loves the silly side of sports. That includes a hugging record and the latest fashion trends at the Olympics. Check out two of Bill Littlefield’s favorite “sports” stories from the past week or so, complete with links to photos!

This week on Only A Game, the latest sliding, skiing, sledding, sweeping, salchow, and sit-spinning news from Vancouver. Also, we’ll check into the New York hotel that goes to the dogs each year during the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show.

Team USA has yet to win a medal in biathlon, but its athletes are working hard to get the United States on the podium. Here are some photos from this week’s event in Vancouver.

Highlight has followed highlight as the Winter Olympics have progressed. Millions of people are tuning in each night for the spectacle, Bill Littlefield among them…though he has begun to wonder if that’s such a good idea.

This week on Only A Game, a preview of the 21st Olympic Winter Games, and a radio tour of Vancouver. Also, Burundi’s president takes to the soccer pitch to help repair a fractured nation, and the life and circus catches of the great Willie Mays.
