Default Beckie gets silver

Just watched the tail end of CBC converage of Beckie's medal ceremony in
Calgary. She got silver, was very gracious about it, and said something to
the effect that "...it's still not over", but that likely refers to the
whole doping issue, and not just the medal issue. Everyone in the place
knows that she should have the gold. At least in this ceremony, she was on
the top step.

Default Beckie gets silver

It's really quite interesting that they awarded her the silver medal
while the CAS is still deciding whether to give her the gold. After
1 1/2 years, you'd think they might wait a week or two to hear the
outcome of the CAS case. But ... maybe she really does want to win
(at some point in time) all three medals for the same race :-)!

Regardless of the CAS, it's a gold medal in my books.
