Game Thread: Women's Hockey Gold Medal GNT - USA v Canada - Alterum diem vivere (subtitle: the rematch duel!)

[elocomotive]

Man, it's tough seeing all those tears from the Canadian gals, hold your heads high ladies, you played a great game, shootouts are a tough way to decide any game, let alone a gold medal game.

Yeah, that was my thought. Strong tournament. It was one shootout goal difference. A medal well deserved and easily could have gone either way.

You're probably right. She should have just waited till later on and thrashed a hotel room.

Atlanta doesn't have a hockey team anymore.

It's debatable as to whether they had a hockey team in the first place.

Seriously, what kind of self-respecting team would create a jersey in that color, it's just... rid...

Nevermind.

Atlanta gave birth and then were aborted. Science.

SOUTH DETROIT!



The fuck? Detroit's DJ make the trip to South Korea? LOL!

Ever been to a karaoke bar?

South Korea's anthem is a mashup of Don't Stop Believin', Sweet Child O Mine and Money for Nothing.

Thanks, Canada. It's been a rough year down here in the ol' U-S of A what with all the shootings, natural disasters, and a President who makes Justin Trudeau look like Thomas Jefferson.

Should be noted that Canada may not match the "Golden Games" of Vancouver, but I still think they are likely to see their most medaled Olympics ever.

Wow, one of the first Canadian women getting their medal took it off as soon as it was put on in what looked like total disgust.

Don't be a self entitled jackass on the international stage.
