Personally, though, I think the US men's basketball team deserves all
the
humiliation that can be heaped on it. Bunch of pathetic, tattooed,
trash-talking, arrogant, spoiled millionaire, gangsta wannabe
losers..... I

don't think you could find anywhere a set of worse excuses for humanity
to
represent the United States. Well, maybe some Abu Ghraib prison
guards....
Or Jerry Springer.... But wait, all those guys looked, talked, and acted
like they might be guests on Springer, so I guess that's redundant.



Yes, even though I hate to see my country lose, these folks got just
what they deserved. Maybe we'll get a competent team next time around.
One than can play better than they can talk.

We should pull the team from the college ranks, not the professional ranks
to
begin with.


Indeed. There was a time in the Olympics when hiring a professional coach
was frowned upon.
