, I'm totally gutted for Jen and Bruce! They were so close to getting that Olympic gold medal, but it just wasn't meant to be this time around 
. Their performance was so much better than expected, and you can tell they gave it their all 
. The Swedish team just played some really smart curling and outsmarted them in the end 
. I'm sure they're both super disappointed and frustrated right now, but like you said, their dedication and spirit are what'll keep shining through 
. They've still got a ton of experience under their belts and can always come back stronger next time 
.
️ They really gave it their all out there!
They had such a great run & it's just heartbreaking they didn't bring home that Olympic medal 
! What really gets me is how hard they worked 4 this & it's just one loss that can bring them down so much 
. We gotta give them props 4 their dedication & sportsmanship, even tho it didn't end the way we all wanted it to 
they may not have gotten that gold, but I'm sure they'll be back stronger than ever... or at least, I hope so, or i'll have to start wearing my Team GB jersey to every party 
. anyway, it's all good, folks - curling is a game of skill and strategy, and those two are seriously talented! 
).
Their game against Sweden was literally the worst they've played all Olympics and now they're done 
The way they lost is just heartbreaking, I'm sure it's going to be tough for them to bounce back from this 
And what a shame, they had such high hopes going into the Olympics... now those hopes are just dust 
. I mean, what's the point of competing if you're just gonna get destroyed by a team that's slightly better? And don't even get me started on the whole 'strategy' thing... it sounds like a bunch of fancy math to me 
. I swear, I've seen more exciting games of darts 
. And what's with all the hype around these curling games, anyway? It's just a bunch of people sliding stones across ice 
. Not exactly thrilling to watch... zzz... 
Still super proud of 'em for going out there and giving it their all, even if it wasn't the result they were hoping for 
!! i mean we all know they're super talented but i guess even the best teams have off days 
Team GBs curling duo is literally broken rn... i mean what even happened? one minute they're crushing it and the next they're getting destroyed by sweden 10-0 lol what a difference a game can make. Jen Dodds and Bruce Mouat are just so invested in this sport and u can tell they gave it their all, but sometimes its just not meant to be 
they were so in it but then... i guess you can't win 'em all, right? my fave tho is that they're still gonna be remembered for their dedication & spirit - props to them! 
. The thing is, even though they didn't win a medal, their sportsmanship and teamwork were really admirable...
