In case you didn’t spend the hours between noon and 2pm glued to your TV, the Canadian and American men’s Olympic hockey teams just faced off in a HIGHLY anxiety-provoking semifinal game.
Team Canada supporters took to Twitter attempting to be vicious and competitive with their pro-U.S. rivals, but — rather unsurprisingly — the results were still prettttttty polite:

Hey guys, SO sorry to intrude, but would you mind letting us score, maybe? If not, it’s totally okay. Sorry!
One more period Canada, let's bury the Americans in the third. #GoCanadaGo

You can’t be that aggressive if you end it with a period.

This seems pretty apathetic.

Again, there’s a general lack of aggression here.

This isn’t so much insulting as it is a mere statement of facts.
We are so clearly the better team, and that makes me so uncomfortable. #CanadavsUSA #TeamCanada #WeAreWinter #WeAreHockey

It’s okay! You don’t have to feel uncomfortable!
