Wins Gold!

Game was a lot closer than I expected, and there was some questionable(inconsistent) officiating, but we were clutch at the end of the game.

I was surprised by the classlessness of the Spanish team, though maybe I shouldn't have been after seeing their pre-Olympic phototaking shenanigans.

the phototaking was blown out of proportion. Like you've never pulled your eyes to imitate a chinese person.

I've certainly never posed for a picture doing it while representing my country. Maybe I'm the only one though.

so because you've never been caught in a photo and weren't wearing a USA t-shirt that makes you any different?

again, it wasn't that big of a deal.

I kinda thought it was a "big" deal, given that they were at a photo shoot...in their olympic gear.

It would've been a bit different if it had been a casual shot.

Maybe there soccer team can all get in blackface for the World Cup in two years, y'know, for national unity.

If the American Team had posed like Spain did, there would have been an absolute ****storm. I guess it just baffles me that the entire team didn't think that maybe it wasn't the best idea.

It was a big deal, for god's sake.
