Olympics: Don't come back

The US Basketball team is currently in the process of getting bitch-slapped by Puerto Rico. A quote from commentator Doug Collins:
"Puerto Rico isn't at all intimidated by the talent of this US squad."
Talent? Are you kidding me? Name one talent that this team possesses. They can't shoot. They can't defend. They can't pass. They can't control the ball. The only talent I can see is the uncanny ability to trick NBA owners into giving them hundreds of millions of dollars.

I'm at the point where I don't want these guys representing my country anymore. I want them to walk off the court, take off those jerseys, and never come home. Seriously- if this team is supposed to represent the US, shouldn't we get some kind of vote in the matter?

UPDATE: Final score, Puerto Rico 92, United States 73.

Seriously- don't come home.
