    I'm with you ... any tournament where you progress to the next round, win all your games in that round and don't move on is seriously flawed ...

          Hey guys don't take it personally, they don't hate UNI, they hate the USA and for the first time ever UNI & the USA are one in the same! I spent about two weeks at the PanAm games one summer & beating the US is a world wide past time, esp. in athletics. It is a screwed up tournament. Think about it we could come home 5-1 & finish like
          9th. That says it all, but at least we know what really happened & we are getting our younger players some really great experience !

            How will it look if both UNI/USA and Lithuania run the table. Lithuania is No. 1 in the world. UNI/USA has one loss (to the world champs) and get 9th

              Just an update from Thailand...

              Lithuania beat Russia by 9, after being down 17 at the end of the 1st Q (Lith was down 17).
              Turkey got SMOKED by Serbia. 90-51
              The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.

                    A little more evidence of how screwy these games appear to be set up. The original schedule had the winners of Lithunia/Russia playing the winners of Turkey/Serbia on one side of the bracket. Now the schedule shows that Canada will play Lithuania and Japan against Serbia, crossing over the pool groupings. Someone must have decided that Serbia and Lithuania should play for the Gold instead of having to bump one to the bronze match. It's too bad, Serbia and Japan are the only teams without a loss at this point.

                      I think Serbia is going to win the gold. They look pretty good, but I imagine they are another team of all pro players. Hopefully Lithuania ends up with a worse record than USA.

                          Yeah we will be. Drake also took a trip to the Bahamas, but I think they are only playing 2 or 4 games.
                          Coach Whisenhunt 1/18/09. "There was never any complaints about not being named the starter, all he wanted was an opportunity and he took advantage of it. Kurt is probably one of the greatest individuals you'll ever meet. Kurt worked hard on a lot of things that a lot of times older quarterbacks aren't willing to do. That's a credit to his humility and his competitive drive, and the reason that we are here today in great part is what Kurt Warner has done for us."

                            Something tells me we were playing a little better competition than Drake was in the Bahamas...
