Congrats to the 12 amazing women who made the US Olympic Team!

[EricLA]

Possibly lost in the other issue is the fact that for the 12 women selected to represent our country, they are about to embark on a once in a lifetime journey. I understand why, at the moment, it's not all about them, but, setting that aside...

For several of them, this is their first Olympic experience. They will find there's nothing like the parade of nations, opening ceremonies, Olympic village, the Olympics themselves, the city of Rio, or the memories they will make and share. What they experience will truly last a lifetime.

I hope they soak in every second of their experience because the Olympics truly are magical. Best of luck to all of them - I know they will represent themselves and our country to the highest degree and I look forward to seeing all their games, hopefully culminating in a gold medal. Best of luck, ladies! Go Team USA!!

Eric , thanks. Let's Congratulate the 12 players that made the Olympic team. Not keep re-hashing why 1 player did not. The Committee has explained why they chose the 12 and why they did not choose the one(1).

Let's Go USA. LETS GO !

Yeah yeah. "Brilliant"...."Funny"....."Freekin' Awesome" You guys write movie posters?

As much as it would have been fun to see how many people jumped on Eric's faux pas, at his request I relented and cleaned up his mess and then I get called out for it!

Anyway, now that you brought it up I get to take a shot too.
