Inklings: The Olympic Experience Beyond the Medals

From the Olympic spirit to incredible national pride, Inklings Sports Editor Michael Nussbaum describes an experience to remember when he attended the 2010 Winter Games in Vancover.

"From my window I could see the overwhelming Canadian flags, American T-shirts, Russian jumpsuits, Chinese hats, and Korean signs," he writes in his latest column for the Staples High School student newspaper. "But even with those well-known countries dominating the picture, I was still able to distinguish the Latvians, the Netherlands, and Switzerland from the pack. From my beautiful view from my hotel, I never once saw any conflicts between any countries, however, just pure excitement, anticipation, and honest nationalism."
