sweet baboo Posted August 27, 2004 Posted August 27, 2004 after the spain fiasco, i went from rooting against the US team to being fully behind them... they look horrible
Pete Posted August 27, 2004 Posted August 27, 2004 What kind of American roots against his own country? :I starred in Brokeback Mountain: :I starred in Brokeback Mountain: :I starred in Brokeback Mountain: :I starred in Brokeback Mountain: :I starred in Brokeback Mountain:
dib Posted August 27, 2004 Posted August 27, 2004 What kind of American roots against his own country? Benedict Arnold?
Campy Posted August 27, 2004 Posted August 27, 2004 They may not be, but Argentina's looked like the better team through most of the game. 5:00 left in the 4th, and IMO it looks like Argentina deserves the win.

Last I checked, not rooting for Team USA's basketball team is not the equivalent of rooting against one's country.
sweet baboo Posted August 27, 2004 Author Posted August 27, 2004 gah...now i feel sick...they should just bring back the college players
BuffalOhio Posted August 27, 2004 Posted August 27, 2004 Lithuania. Lithu-freaking-ania gets to play for the Gold. What an embarassment this is for our country.
Mark VI Posted August 27, 2004 Posted August 27, 2004 Arrogant " Street " ball doesn't win the Gold. Team basketball does. Next time, maybe they'll pick an actual team , instead of wasting several slots on " I'm too Cool " type of Players.
Drifter Posted August 27, 2004 Posted August 27, 2004 I'm angry they lost, but at least they stepped up and tried. Blame the people who put the team together and the players who couldn't bother themsevles to play for their country. Did Garnett have to polish his rims all summer?
Tux of Borg Posted August 27, 2004 Posted August 27, 2004 Arrogant " Street " ball doesn't win the Gold. Team basketball does. Next time, maybe they'll pick an actual team , instead of wasting several slots on " I'm too Cool " type of Players. What... you mean you're not allowed to take 15 steps in the Olympics. It's a conspiracy against USA basketball!
BF_in_Indiana Posted August 27, 2004 Posted August 27, 2004 Here is the problem. Most of our top players couldn't play this summer. Jermaine O'Neal from the Pacers, Kobe Bryant, etc etc........ Carlos Boozer was on this team, that ought to say something.
Corp000085 Posted August 27, 2004 Posted August 27, 2004 don't talk so down about the united states, via team usa olympic basketball!!! you may be classified as an idiot for saying such things, even if the team sucks. I was today! you may be next.
TheMadCap Posted August 27, 2004 Posted August 27, 2004 9488[/snapback] It says Iverson is only 6 feet tall. Is that right???
Mike32282 Posted August 27, 2004 Posted August 27, 2004 I now hope they don't even win the bronze metal. Damn them!
Pete Posted August 28, 2004 Posted August 28, 2004 What the fug? The players played their asses off! They did their best and lost. I applaud their efforts and if I ever run into Iverson or any of the others I will thank them for representing our awesome country.
