Americans are all saying the same weird thing as NFL London finishes as a draw

The United States of America is a country of winners and losers.

In the land of the free, there can be no space for a grey area in between. Nuance is overrated, and there can be no room for any ambiguity. You see this in all walks of life across the pond, but nowhere is it clearer than in the sporting realm where draws (or ties, as they call them) are to be avoided at all costs. If a baseball game is level at the end of 10 innings, they simply have extra innings. While in their other major sports, overtime is the punishment for the teams finishing with the same score. And that's not just in the cup tournament that is the playoffs, but in the regular, league-style season too. But when the Cincinnati Bengals arrived in London to face off against Washington at Wembley stadium on Sunday, British NFL fans saw their first ever tie in the history of the NFL London series. Because of the physicality of the sport, if a game is still level at the end of the extra period, then it goes down as a tie game - which happens, on average, once every two seasons. Washington had the best chance to secure victory after kicker Dustin Hopkins split the uprights with a 34-yard field goal as a little over two minutes remained in extra time, but a Cincinnati time-out just before the snap meant Hopkins had to re-take the kick. On his second try, his kick sailed wide left and the game eventually finished level, with 27 points apiece. It was the second tie game of the season - something that hasn't happened in the NFL in almost two decades. https://twitter.com/OptaJerry/status/792782457699524608 And while we know that Americans don't like to be denied a clear winner, we're not exactly sure about the nation's collective description for something we see on a weekly basis over here. https://twitter.com/TheDJAlexander/status/792783062257930240 https://twitter.com/tkeen6/status/792782795085123584 https://twitter.com/kindafoxy/status/792781545648037889 https://twitter.com/theMANnamedDAN/status/792787306876801024 https://twitter.com/Bartman51/status/792786927015501824 https://twitter.com/FauxMcCaskey/status/792786686459641856 https://twitter.com/BobbyBigWheel/status/792786201661042688 https://twitter.com/Jtg8679/status/792784446982279168 https://twitter.com/gojamz/status/792784007960428544 Ok America, whatever you say...
