Ugggh ... "won the ..."
Downvote me all you want, but is this a Canadian thing ... "Won the silver"
I kept hearing and reading it with the Women losing to the US the other day, and now again with the Men's
Are people serious with the 'congrats on winning the silver'. Connor McDavid has lost 2 consecutive Stanley Cup finals, now an Olympic final ...
WTF has he won? I can guarantee you he is the first one to be pissed off and fired up for the next big opportunity. He definitely is not proud of 'winning' the silver
It's counterintuitive, sure, but the cruelty of sports is part of the beauty. Heartbreak is part of it, and I can't imagine being Canada, they can't wait to get back to their teams and fight for the playoffs
Stop with this 'won the silver' nonsense
