I forgot, you're British.  The Miracle on Ice wasn't as seminal an event for the U.K. as it was for the U.S. and U.S.S.R.  That was when the U.S. defeated the powerhouse Soviet hockey team at the 1980 Winter Olympics.  Al Michaels ended the game with this commentary (I will save the entire last few sentences for the end of this game, but here is the most famous part), "Do you believe in miracles?  YES!!!"

Also, here is the Miracle's Wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miracle_on_Ice

"I believe every single person is extraordinary. The tragedy is that we
have a society where too many people never get to fulfill that
extraordinary potential. My view – the liberal view – is that
government’s job is to help them to do it. Not to tell people how to
live their lives. But to make their choices possible, to release their
potential, no matter who they are. The way to do that is to take power away from those who hoard it. To challenge vested interests. To break down privilege. To clear out the bottlenecks in our society that block opportunity and block progress. And so give everyone a chance to live the life they want." - Nick Clegg, Leader of the Liberal Democrats and Deputy Prime Minister of the United Kingdom

And the spoils despoil the victor, making him unfit to remain in his position.  I'll take over as winner in his stead.  I'm self-sacrificing like that.  ;)
