[QUOTE="UcMiami, post: 2089785, member: 199"] I think that is not a good idea - this is not a 'participation' trophy thing, it is based on performance - you going to tell Michael Phelps, sorry, I know you are still the best in the world but it is time to let some younger guys into the pool? And especially with the time constraints on USA teams actually practicing, it is a huge benefit to be returning a core of players. On the men's side especially where a lot of the guys don't want to play, rewarding those who do is a good idea. And on the women's side, really, you want to tell Catchings that thanks very much but you played in 2004 and 2008, you can't play again. Or DT who after three Olympics was still the star of her fourth. Or Lisa Leslie? Sure it is tough that some people never get chosen, and that others end up changing their nationality to get to the Olympics, but the pool of those players isn't all that large, and it is hard to really argue that they deserved a place on merits over someone else on the team.
