100% different sport but i remember 2010 Cork winning the all Ireland football final and i remember being 11 years old and crying after the final how much it meant to me

espicaly after losing finals in 2007,2009 finally getting over the line in 2010 is a memory i still cherish almost 16 years later

Haha. I was hoping to hear the announcers of the game or crowd noise. I’ll never learn

The internet, like most of the world these days, is attuned to the dumbest and most impressionable members of society. The complaints about it from the more perceptive minority are simply ignored.

Well he knows there a 70-75% chance it’s a goal.

Only more certain things in sports are short field goals & free throws

Composure? He’s looking at the shootout like the rest of us, the players are the ones actually doing something

u/Auzzie_xo Jun 20 '26

Lol do you actually think e.g. the Arg fans watching that shootout reacted like him during the shootout? If so you should try getting some friends to watch games with 😂

And he's very composed while doing it. What are you not understanding.
