[Boom Boom Apathy]

1 hit away.

 

[cptjeff]

The hit didn't contact the head and he was back afterwards. And looked disappointed and angry while getting his medal, because that's the curse of silver.

Ok, werewolf.

 

[cptjeff]

Ok, werewolf.

It's a thing that's actually been studied academically. Silver medal winners are nearly always unhappier with the result than bronze winners. If you win a bronze, you're just happy that you medaled at all, but when you win silver, you're angry that you missed out on gold.

Seriously speaking, yes. Plus, bronze metal winners end their tournament with a win. Silver medal winner on the other hand is a bit of an oxymoron.

The dynamic is there even in individual sports when you're not playing head to head in the title game, so it's not even the ending with a loss thing. It's just an oddity of human psychology.

Also, I thought the silver bullet thing was vampires?

Yeah we were all WAY happier than Panthers fans were at the end of last year…

Silver has antimicrobial properties, so it was considered pure and useful as a weapon against impure beings.

Werewolves, vampires, devils, Rangers.

Nah, silver bullet - werewolves; stake to the heart - vampires.

Blade used silver bullets, silver stakes, and silver nitrate as weapons.

Van Helsing also used silver bullets vs vampires.

I ain't buying any of that newfangled stuff! When my life is on the line I'm only trusting what worked against these guys.

He had a good tourney. It suits his game to be playing high tempo with like minded teammates. He’s not a big guy, I don’t know what he can be in the NHL but he looked good in the best tournament to judge him on. There isn’t really one special skill you see, he’s a well rounded, intelligent offensive player with above average speed. We’ll hopefully see him in the AHL sooner than later.

I'm sure you did, werewolf.

I'm sure you did, werewolf.

The legend of the disappearing mods , hmmm…
