    Imagine the Rugby team....

    All i got say is that this situation with the so called basketball team we sent over there keeps getting sadder and sadder. First Turkey than Puerto Rico, who next Nepal. This team is just one big joke.

    PR was up by 22 at halftime, the US managed to pull the score within 8 but, the PR point guard Arroyo was simply awesome and, managed to pull his team through with a couple 3 pointers.

    The Maryland Terrapins would have represented better.

    Our Olympic basketball team is not doing good at all. A few weeks ago in an exhibition match against Italy, they got smashed.
    And we used to be the best...
