So the excuse is they are grown-ups that can't dress themselves...
Why not just get on the podium and let them play your national anthem for you while you receive your medals....simple enough formula |

So when a football team wins a championship, they should refuse to put on the shirts and hats given to them?
Come on, if it hurts the losing teams feelings, maybe they should play better so the US doesn't have the opportunity to celebrate. By the way, is their cockiness any worse or distasteful than Usain Bolts celebrations and proclamations? No one seems to mind him telling everyone how great he is.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

I think the USA baskerbakk team showed alot of class after their victory ,
Yes they jumped around & danced , But they made it a point to state that it was a honor to play for our country .
I was happy to see the way they handeled themselves &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& its sure not about the money for them . If it wasn,t the olympics , most of them wouldn,t be near a baskerbakk until its work time .JUST My Opinion ><><<  |
ENJOY WHAT YOU HAVE !!!
