All-Star Worlds 2017 Day 2 Updates

And how do you know that they aren't thankful for being at worlds? Seeing them announced in 2nd/3rd is just a tiny snapshot of their lives. You can't say that they aren't grateful just because they're disappointed for half a minute.

I wouldn't be disappointed. Even making it to finals and placing top 10 would be a dream for me.

Shimmy this post if you were always happy and smiling when you got 2nd or 3rd.

Don't worry.

I'll wait.

I had to think really hard about how to show that I appreciated this post without hitting shimmy lol, then I remembered we had a like button.

Well I do have a video of me jumping up and down crying happy tears for getting 3rd at UCA but maybe that's just me.

2nd twice, and 3rd once at NDA college nationals, tears every time.

0.4 between 2nd and 3rd but a massive convincing win by Stars!!

I think all the athletes are thankful but it is much easier to realize how amazing it is to be at worlds and place top three or ten or wherever you placed after a couple hours. The disappointment in the initial moments of placements is really hard and super emotional. I have gotten excited over a top four placement and cried happy tears but have also cried over a third place finish so it really depends I guess and I would hope my character wouldn't be judged nearly as harshly as these girls are for my reaction

I echo the point-- these are high school kids. Hindsight is 20/20 as adults can look back and know that losing at worlds is a defining moment in their lives but it doesn't define their whole lives-- they just don't have that perspective yet.

ETA- we aren't talking about teams that are dark horses and weren't expected to win. When you're on panthers, senior elite, etc there is the understanding that you are a main contender to win worlds.
