Who was that guy handing out the medals? I swear, Balić wouldn't stop cracking jokes at him...

They played the footage, you just aren't seeing it clearly. Whether you want to admit it or not is up to you, but it’s better for everyone, especially if you're behind the wheel.

Jonathan Reed4 said:Man, I really feel like the refs screwed us on that championship run. Why do I get the feeling the Americans are actually the better team?


Mods, if you gotta ban me for this next part, just make it for the "other sport" section—thanks in advance!

Screw the refs too, honestly. They're a joke.
Do you feel better now? Like you're somehow superior to your old man? You're such a quitter. Total lack of spirit. Pure cynicism. Weak.
Gonna go grab some more vodka...

Come on, man! That's just part of the game in the NBA! 😉

Screw the EHF
I’m totally done with their scheduling
And I am completely over this soft-ass group play they keep forcing on us
Next time, let's just bring out the US MMA national team led by Fedor Emelianenko and see who really wants to step up—actually, scratch that, we all know how things go when things get real

It feels like the whole world is against us, honestly. It’s just that same old mentality from our rivals over in Mexico.

We actually looked better for maybe 20 minutes of the game, but the Danes had them for the other 40.
The only reason we even stood a chance at catching up late was because they completely lost their cool and started making unforced errors.

I guess I'm just bummed we didn't grab the gold to round out the medal collection. But man, they gave it everything they had. Their hearts were willing, even if their bodies just wouldn't cooperate anymore.

Seriously though, props to the guys. You're still the best in my book, even without the title.🙏

Is Balić really the MVP?

Our players look half-dead out there, the Danes are playing way too fast, Hvidt is doing all the heavy lifting on defense, and our goalies? They're nonexistent. That's pretty much it.

First it was the Germans last year, now they’re handing it to the home team again

But honestly, if you ask me, those Scandinavians earned every bit of it

Yeah, sure, and those other two plays were totally fine too. Honestly, have you people no shame? You're being transparent to a fault.

boldhound8 said:Major props to Lina for that one🙏
And now look at you guys, whining about every little thing, two minutes here and two minutes there.
At this rate, we might as well throw him a parade and build him a freaking monument

👍👍👍

You'd want to grab him by the neck, but how can you even grab a guy like that? He’s built so awkward and chunky, looks like someone glued his head onto his shoulders...!!!!!!!!!!
Honestly, he just needs a kick in the butt. Let the team toast to our win, then let's go home and play a game where we actually know who's winning ahead of time...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!🤮🤮🤮

James Campbell2 said:Look, I think you guys are seriously overreacting. Sure, the refs blew it on the calls against Čupić, and maybe even Lacković, but two massive errors back-to-back? That’s just bad. As for Vukić, I’m not 100% certain, but from where I was sitting, he definitely touched the ball. And Lino? He absolutely deserved that ejection for acting like a complete idiot. But let’s be real—remember how many calls went the other way for Team Denmark? Traveling, fouls, the whole nine yards. Even that blatant error at the start, where they called a foul on Dominiković instead of giving them a penalty shot... that was huge. The real issue wasn't just the officiating; it was that they missed calls against us during the most critical moments, and when you combine that with Lino’s stupidity, that's what decided the game.

you gotta be kidding me, right?? you know damn well how many suspensions should've been handed out for the stuff they did to our guys... how many times the Americans kept the ball during traveling or charging calls and completely shut down our fast breaks😠..f***ing hell, they didn't hand out a single two-minute penalty once

Good grief, I simply cannot bear to watch this.
I actually had to turn away from the TV screen...

bluebison10 said:What can you even do when the EHF president is Norwegian and the head of the global federation is a Dane? These Scandinavians act like they're the gold standard for federation leadership, yet they spend their time undermining their own champions. A few years back, they did it to the Germans over some sponsorship drama, and now it looks like Dance is next on the list. Not to mention how everything was rigged for the Unknown at the start of the millennium—all just to chase fake sponsors while the actual clubs don't see a single cent.

Maybe people were cheering for the Norwegians during our game just because they're the hosts or because they have the EHF president on their side.🙄

At this stage, we really ought to have Šola guarding the net.

Come on, let's be reasonable here. 😁 I truly cannot stand it when Božo Sušec starts picking fights over nothing right from the very first minute, and what I find even more aggravating is when someone actually decides to jump on the bandwagon and fuel that nonsense. It’s honestly exhausting, isn't it? I just can't abide it.

But really, wasn't that just an absolute robbery tonight? I mean, it was blatantly obvious, wasn't it? To be fair, if they called one goal on a foul, I could wrap my head around it, but two in a row? That’s just plain disrespectful.🙄 We should probably just bench Vori. He let the ball slip right out of his hands and didn't even bother to get it back into play. Honestly, how does that happen? 🙄 It seems we’ve encountered a double disqualification because things went a bit sideways on the line. One has to wonder, really—how does such a lapse occur at this level? It was a messy situation, to say the least. 🙄Vukić getting called for a foul, then seeing Čupić tossed without any clear reason... give me a break. It feels far too calculated to be just some series of unfortunate accidents. Honestly, at this point, I'd have felt more comfortable if we had those officials from the Midwest refereeing the game instead. 🙏

Judicial theft serves as an excuse, and more often than not, it doesn't actually impact the outcome of the games—but that certainly doesn't mean it isn't a reality. Does such a thing truly exist? One might argue it's mostly noise, yet we cannot simply dismiss it entirely. 😉 Well, if you’re looking for definitive proof of how much they can get away with, look no further than what happened tonight. This right here? This is the ultimate evidence of their dishonesty. 😁

If anyone dares to write a single word against our guys, they’re a total jerk. Or maybe just a little brat... 🙂

Honestly, we played incredibly well—we made a few mistakes, sure, but that’s hardly surprising when you're grinding through eight games in just eleven days. In my book, the Americans weren't even better than us; they might have had a slightly superior goalie, but if the refs hadn't waved off two of our goals and kept making calls in their favor, we would've been looking at overtime for sure. We probably needed to lean more on our wings, and frankly, the NBA needs to overhaul this tournament format... the players need actual rest between matchups. 👎

As Shojat mentioned, if someone had offered us the silver medal before the tournament even started, we would've snatched it up in a heartbeat. BRAVO, BOYS!!! 🙏
