No. Do you want to know, really? Your tone throughout makes me wonder if you do. *NM* Palatine Send a noteboard - 05/08/2012 05:09:42 PM

/olympics: is it necessary to win a basketball game by 80+ points? moondog - 03/08/2012 08:39:56 AM 732 Views
Judging by what happened in the badminton, yes it is. Tim - 03/08/2012 08:45:23 AM 499 Views
It is far more obvious in the badminton, too. jh - 03/08/2012 09:58:04 AM 516 Views
yes i know they had to actually play the game to the end, i still find it boring to watch either way moondog - 03/08/2012 04:06:14 PM 443 Views
Maybe the IOC shouldn't let Nigeria compete if they can't keep up with real countries. Cannoli - 03/08/2012 12:12:24 PM 682 Views
My thoughts are they could institutionalise something like the soccer competition Stephen - 03/08/2012 12:51:09 PM 434 Views
Soccer does that on purpose so that the World Cup means a lot more *NM* Dark Knight - 03/08/2012 03:22:35 PM 206 Views
Football does it *because* the Euro/World Cups mean a lot more. An important distinction. *NM* Wibble - 03/08/2012 07:58:58 PM 200 Views
What Wibble said, and the reason has to do with the amount of competitive teams. Legolas - 03/08/2012 08:25:08 PM 504 Views
Agree. Rebekah - 03/08/2012 01:22:15 PM 437 Views

Where do you get "78 point halftime lead"? Legolas - 03/08/2012 07:32:13 PM 438 Views
So who is stopping the other countries from making their own NBAs if they want to compete? A Deathwatch Guard - 03/08/2012 08:56:46 PM 468 Views
hehe you're funny Orange - 03/08/2012 02:25:29 PM 488 Views
There's also a fairly large South-East Asian pro league. *NM* Stephen - 03/08/2012 03:10:58 PM 215 Views
actually it is their fault they're so good..... moondog - 03/08/2012 04:03:41 PM 520 Views
Yes, yes it is *NM* Dark Knight - 03/08/2012 03:20:16 PM 227 Views
Did you read coach K's response? Aemon - 03/08/2012 03:50:26 PM 524 Views
i saw it this morning after i had already posted the original comment moondog - 03/08/2012 04:32:08 PM 583 Views
I guess I still don't understand your complaint. Aemon - 03/08/2012 06:17:05 PM 499 Views
my main objection is how the olympics are now nothing more than an extension of pro leagues moondog - 04/08/2012 05:39:08 PM 436 Views
You'd have us kick out every Olympian other than the boxers, then? Stephen - 04/08/2012 06:00:08 PM 423 Views
no, i'd have the olympics be more about sport and less about money moondog - 04/08/2012 06:12:24 PM 445 Views
But you seem to be objecting to the NBA players taking part... snoopcester - 04/08/2012 06:17:32 PM 483 Views

The US doesn't always win the gold medal, you know. Legolas - 03/08/2012 07:41:33 PM 550 Views
one silver, two bronze, one boycott -- all others gold since 1936 moondog - 04/08/2012 05:55:11 PM 454 Views
I prefer athletes to put in their best performances, since their wages are paid for by spectators snoopcester - 03/08/2012 07:04:33 PM 479 Views
Yes, it is, and I find it ridiculous you even had to ask. A Deathwatch Guard - 03/08/2012 08:51:09 PM 546 Views
You really don't seem to grasp athletic competitions too well, it seems Larry - 03/08/2012 09:31:53 PM 575 Views
The "professionals shouldn't compete" argument is one of the dumbest things I've read in months. Ghavrel - 06/08/2012 07:08:56 AM 437 Views
