Annette Nordberg was the gold medal favorite going into Turin, even over Team Canada, thus she was supposed to win the gold. She got so excited over her gold medal though, when she made that final shot to beat Switzerland, I was a bit confused. She was the gold medal favorite thus she was supposed to win. She was not just a dark horse, a threat, a contender, or a strong contender, but the favorite. Thus her excitement over winning the gold was a bit mystifying, since she merely did what she was supposed to do. I was dissapointed to see her reaction.

What did you do upon being dissapointed?

Seems like a stimulus reaction if you ask me. I'd probably celebrate if I won a gold medal, whether I was supposed to or not.
