Message: [QUOTE="Alydar, post: 2478175, member: 730"] I don't think WNBA teams play together for 9 months. You may be thinking of the NBA. They start to practice sometime in April and for most of the teams it's over in the first week of September. But I agree that putting a team together and practicing creates a problem. I guess my point is that as it is done now the Olympics is a battle between national champions and exploits nationalistic fervor to generate interest (& revenue). My Olympics would be a celebration of athletics where there would be no banners, no anthems and where US television would show all the events and not just those where US athletes excel. [/QUOTE]
