Spelling Bee shows clearly that the USA is better spellers than Canadians
You have to love the National Spelling Bee if only for the commentators pretty much all being sports figures/commentators from ESPN.
A canadiac has never won a National Spelling Bee and I could only imagine the digust in the United States if this were to ever happen. However, I think that today should be a National Holiday to celebrate United States pride.
The winning word was serrefine which is no ursprache the winning word in last years competition.
I think what should be next is extreme spelling where these kids have to spell while swimming in a pool filled with barracudas or better yet, have Dubya be the joker that is pronouncing the words. I am not complaining. I am just happy that I did not pick Samir Patel on my Spelling Bee Fantasy Team.
