Yes , H , good sportsmanship also means winning OR losing gracefully . A few U.S. players accepted the Silver Medal with class , the others looked like they had sucked on a lemon .

The Finns won the Bronze and everyone of them had smiles from ear to ear . THAT was the best sportsmanship of all the 3 teams .

To the Figure Skating Medal Ceremony all three winners hugged each other and all 3 shared the platform as if all 3 had won the GOLD .
That was the ultimate sportsmanship . Great stuff to watch .
( Korea / Gold , Japan / Silver , Canada / Bronze )
