[QUOTE="Xapi, post: 810956, member: 56815"] My point was only that it is not an "american view it differently" thing, but it has to do with the actual state of each sport worldwide. I guess you could take basketball out of the olympics... I would argue that for most players that are there (IE: Those not from the US) winning a medal is a pretty big frickin deal. For the US players, they are at a no-win situation: If they get the gold, well, OF COURSE!, and if they don't, they SUCK so hard. [/QUOTE]
