I have more loyalty to the personal connection we have to the Argentina players than people like (rapist) Kobe Bryant, (nut punching) Chris Paul, and (all around thug) Carmelo Anthony. It's nothing against the US, nor does it mean I am making a political statement.

I just want our boys with the San Antonio connection to do well. Oberto and Manu are Spurs, and my loyalty is to the Spurs in them over the stupid jingoistic need to say GO USA GO USA GO USA no matter what kind of person is representing the US.

Well said. I reserve the fucking right not to root for classless thugs like Kobe and Carmelo and Paul. I was ashamed of the way team USA acted when Greece was whipping their asses. The dream team proved everything I ever wanted USA basketball to prove, and did it with class and grace. The experiment should have ended there.

You want me to root for the USA basketball team, give me players that are worth rooting for. I'd rather see college players finish out of medal contention.

Fuck you S-HEAT fan.

The real Team USA is the MILITARY.

Recognize that motherfucker!!!!

In a related story, a man was stabbed in a deli in Miami today for attempting to add swiss cheese to his turkey sandwich. The assailant was outraged that someone would disrespect American cheese so blatantly and favor the more neutral flavored Swiss, whose creators were declared to be nothing more than skiing hippies, pinetree huggers, and watchmaking fags by the mouth-foaming assailant. Moments before the stabbing, the assailant had been engaged in a screaming match with the manager of the business, who he called "un-american" for serving lukewarm Freedom Fries.

Sorry, but I'm with Miami Heat on this one. I hope Rudy does well in the gold medal game, but eff Spain. It's all about the USA Baby!

go USA

I hope Michael Redd sticks a tiny statuette of Teddy Roosevelt up Rudy's ass.

I know where we could get a Robin williams statuette on the cheap. We can dress him up like Night at the Museum.

That's the olympic spirit!

The world is back to to normal! Argentina wins olympic gold in soccer, and the US will win Basketball Gold!!!! :downspin:

Hope the US does win, that way they won't need to change the rules for you in London.

Ah, London... that's where Tony Blair lives. Remember the good ol' days when the neocons hated him for being a liberal labor party pinko who believed in socialized medicine? See? Given enough time, we can all find grounds for friendship. Now that's the Olympic spirit!

damn...could have beaten Argentina much worse. but, a win is a win is a win. time to DESTROY Spain.

Yeah, yeah, citizen of the world. I get it.
