Thanks. This is exactly what I was thinking about earlier today. I need to add to my cable package for August.

Reminder: for anyone who wants to see the semifinals or Gold Medal game IN PERSON, I have tickets.

Apparently Jonathan didn't get invited to Rio ...but that's okay because Tina says, "my team good, we don't really need a mascot." To wit:

Judging from this photo, I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest that this team is fairly "loose", and appears to be some what confident in thier pursuit of a gold medal in Rio. To borrow a term made famous by that noted scholar and humorist Alfred E. Newman, "What, me worry?" Bring it home ladies. Go USA.

Question: What do all of the teams in group A have in common? They're all glad team USA IS NOT in their group.

Will be interesting to see how close Spain is able to keep the game. They have talented guards.
