I don't care how she 'feels'. As a Canadian, I want to be proud of my team. If they lose, I'm not proud of them. I don't care that they 'gave it their all'...
When Canada plays the US in olympic hockey, I don't cheer on the team if they loose to the Yanks - I rant and I rave and curse and almost cry. When the Canadian hockey team won gold I was happy. I was bursting at the seams happy. Because we won. We did something good. We excelled.
I will not cheer for, defend, any athlete who does nothing but disappoint.
