A Modest Proposal

Revoke the U.S. Olympic Basketball Teams' passports, and put them in a cell with Fischer.

(Unable to show my face in another country for at least the next four years.)
😳

did they just lose or something? If so, who to? Were they amateurs or pro's?

If there is any conselation, the British no.1 tennis player is out already 3-6 3-6.

The superstars lost to that basketball powerhouse, Puerto Rico...

The main players stayed home. These are NBA player? What is next? The Harlem Globetroters will loose?

I am an American (well, a Texan 😀), and I love the Olympics, but I don't really care who wins. I just love to see the battle, and I love the joy of the winners and even the sorrow of the losers. It is the stuff of dreams, the heart and soul of life. I am proud of all the atheletes, no matter the country, no matter win or lose.
The Olympics is what we should all strive for. It is thousands of people working and competing together with pride and respect for themselves, as well as their opponents. We at rhp, and all of our global family need to take a page from the spirit of the Olympics to make the world a better place.
