Puerto Rico beats US in men's basketball

[mercian billman]

Did you guys watch the US vs Puerto Rico game this afternoon?

It hurts me to say the US team got it's butts handed to them Well Puerto Rico deserved it, they played with alot of heart and hustle.

The best line from the moive version of the Miracle on Ice team of 1980 was the coach saying "I am not looking for the best players, I am looking for the best team".

Applies to the US, may be the best individual players, but certainly not the best team.

Good game to Puerto Rico.

The players we have there arent even that though, cause if they were would be dominating but regretfully almost all the A-List players pulled out

LOL, if they hadn't, the mighy U.S. wouldn't have got their butts kicked . The President of the USA should impose an appropriate decree disallowing the people of Puerto Rico have their own basketball team!



Out of curiosity, do the citizens of PR, have the same rights as the other States' people?

[USMCNJ]

yes, except that they don't have to pay US taxes
