A Train Wreck

Everyone sort of knew this was coming, but it made it no less shocking when it happened. The US basketball team was absolutely embarassed by Puerto Rico today, losing by 19 points. It was disgraceful. It felt like watching one of those Faces of Death videos.

I won't go on too big of a rant here, because I already did it in the Sports Shack. Check here to read it.

One interesting point that nervesmiffs brought up is that not one player on this team was in the top 50 in the NBA in three point shooting. Not one. Incredible.

Hey, but we have four of the top seven (and 7 of the top 15) turnover leaders!
