Proud of Our Olympic Team - GO USA BASKETBALL - GOLD MEDAL!


Aug 7, 2021, 9:20 AM

Excellent win over the team that beat us in the opener.

GOLD medal for a great team. Kevin Durant was not going to be stopped. Happy for Gregg Popovich (U.S. Air Force, 1970 to 1975).

Proud of this team - GO USA!

Something Satisfying About Beating on The French


Aug 7, 2021, 9:21 AM

Not sure why, despite our cultural need to belittle each other, we have consistently fought for each other.

Amen to that. The French have never even slightly paid us back for saving their country. A while back, they would not allow our jets to fly over their airspace to bomb a savage dictator. Ghadaffi I believe.

Well…to be fair…if it hadn’t been for the French, we likely wouldn’t have beaten the British to win our independence in the first place. I consider us all square.

Winning the gold in men’s basketball will never get old. I was a freshman in college when we were robbed in Munich, and have never gotten over it.

You youngsters out there need to watch this…if it doesn’t fire you up, nothing will.

I will never, ever root against the USA at the Olympics.

Sorry. Can't. Simple as that, really.

Kudos to Kevin Durant for showing up, representing the US of A, and getting it done. Again.

Neither will I. However I want nothing to do with( pro) basketball, including the Olympics, now that the league has started @$$ kissing the Chinese. In fact weren't some of NBA players on other nations squads?

It’s great that they suspended the nba playoffs

So we could field the best team

Aug 7, 2021, 1:37 PM

They wouldn't have allowed the other team to get a double digit lead on them.

There was no turn it on turn it off strategy to see if a player can get the US back on track. They were on all the time and there were several players that kept it going.

Nigeria got a moral victory out of these Olympics.

Enjoy that gold though.
