2006 Turin Winter OlympicsWomen's hockey: A little brotherly love

The Swedish woman who scored the goal heard 'round the hockey world also happens to be the sister of a newspaper columnist, which makes for some interesting copy.

The thing I don't get is how does this guy not know what to write! Dan, if you can't provide some relevant insight into your sister and her hockey playing ability, who can? How's this for a column: What's holding Swedish women's hockey back (aside from the Swedish media's obvious disdain for the sport)?

I, for one, think it would be fantastic if more reporters actually played or were connected to the game in some way other than to the free donuts in the press box.
