Miracles Not In Our Favor!

Betcha that guy did not find it a positive experience...


And don't say "that's just a movie!".



We are after all discussing fiction.

I’ve never played ice hockey, but I wonder how the players on the US team felt about their victory over the Soviet Union at the 1980 Olympics being called ‘The Miracle On Ice’.

There had to be at least ONE player who thought to himself, ‘I’ve been playing this game since I was a little kid. I devote hours and hours every day to conditioning my body and honing my skills. My playing and practice has given sprains, broken bones, and chipped teeth, but I’ve never let that stop me. I study the tactics of the game, I listen to my coaches and my teammates,  and I try - every single day - to be to best hockey player I can possibly be and sweat blood in the process.

‘And now they’re calling this win a miracle. Thank you. Thank you so fucking much.’
