Am I A Terrorist For Wanting the US Basketball Team To Lose?
I have a confession to make. I want the US basketball team to lose. I want them to lose big. I was trying to fight it. I was trying to convince myself they weren’t that bad. I think I was embarrassed and ashamed to really admit my feelings. But after watching Carmello rain 3’s all over Nigeria’s face with Lebron celebrating on the sidelines like a bitch I can’t hold it in anymore. I can’t run from who I am. Facts are facts. I hate 90% of the team. I hate Lebron, Kobe, Carmello etc. I hate the coach. I hate watching them whoop it up when they are up 100. Everything about this team bothers me.. I just can’t keep this facade up anymore. I can’t do it. Yeah I know it’s Team USA, but it doesn’t matter. I hate them. I want them to lose. There I said it. It’s like releasing a huge weight off my back. And guess what? I don’t think I’m the only one. In fact I know I’m not. I think at least half of the country is rooting against them. That’s how hateable they are. I’m urging you to come forward. Don’t fight it. Release your feelings. You’ll feel much better once you do.
didnt know anyone was rooting for or even watching them
I concur. Besides durant noone I give a shit about
i just want lebron to lose, im fine with everyone else.
Give your buddy Felger a call. He’s been saying this for a month
jews dont make confessions
Believe me, I tried to hate these guys. But yesterdays game might be the most fun basketball game I’ve ever watched. USA USA USA
If you root against the USA you are a fucking asshole.
exact opposite, I was indifferent to them but this whole feud with the 92 dream team and that bitch blowing up Bron’s spot took me from detesting him to just not liking him. Now might as well see them just dominate everyone.
no not a terrorist, just another sniveling jew
It’s like releasing a huge weight off my back.
Not wanting to ruin your friday fatty but thats not a weight, that your hunch, embrace it, maybe buy it a scarf or something
No way do I want them to lose. Go USA! You see what they did to their ancestors yesterday….great shit.
i just want lebron to blow out his knee…or his back or just die for that matter
naw bro you got it all wrong. i want team usa to win but i want kobe to get caught raping one of the 15 year olds on the gymnastics team and i flat out want lebron to die. cant ask for anything more than that. other than coach k doing something utterly embarrassing (which will most likely happen anyway)
YOU ARE SUCH A FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT, YOU JEW BITCH.
Only way I root for them is if Lebron blows his knees (yes both) out and durant leads them to gold
Go root for Team Isreal then. Shalom.
@ihniwigo u mad bro?
you’re just a stupid fucking sniveling little typical jew. Get over it dick head. You’d be deep throating Lebron, Defending Kobe’s butt rape and taking a deep ass fucking from Carmelo if they are on the C’s and guess what… YOURE NOT EVEN A FUCKING REAL HOOPS FAN DICK HEAD. now shut the fuck up and make me laugh you clown.
P.S. there is no one that can stop this team besides like maybe tebow or something.
I also want them to lose
regardless of what the team, sport, and the players on the team, if your rooting against your country, then your a piece of shit and dont deserve to live under the liberties and freedom of america.
So your rooting against team USA while seling $30 polyester tank tops with the American flag on it? No your not a terrorist, your a greedy, hypocritical, hook nose Jew. Now go fire Neil you fraud
I am always big on cheering for underdogs. I also hate douche teams that run up the score against opponents. I can understand in the NBA because it’s professional teams, but killing teams like Tunisia and Nigeria. Get out of here. I hope they lose to Russia and Shved and AK47 kill it.
It’s been a while, but I actually agree with Pres on this one. I’ll root for the US of A in everything except for basketball. These smug, overpaid ghetto thugs have done nothing to warrant my fandom. Bunch of rapist, fake-glasses wearing douchebags.
^ billyballoonknot your a faggot and hes rooting against the players, not USA. You can dislike a team and not dislike a country you fucking retard. Im with you Pres.
So you’d rather root for the Gasol brothers’ hairy pussies or the commies? And it’s one L in Carmelo Muhammad.
Oh, and all of you saying that if someone doesn’t root for the US, then we’re assholes…so fucking be it. Blind allegiance doesn’t get one anywhere. What if Jefferson, Washington, Franklin, Adams and the like thought that way? You fucking sheeple are too funny.
Makes those “Haters Gonna Hate” shirts that you’re trying to sell seem real ironic.
yes, you’re a cunt for rooting against the us
@ELPRES – go fuck yourself you nazi love jewbag… yes you are an oxymoron
you know who I hate more than Lebron James?? foreigners…go go USA!
That’s why Team USA should be college players. Watching Dion Waiters tear up opposing defenses would kick ass.
Is it possible for you to write a sports-related post without misspelling someone’s name and looking like a dumbass? It’s CARMELO you fucking goober
Hipneck, bringing the founding fathers into a 2012 basketball argument might be over doing it just a tad
Seriously bro? So you’d be rooting for China to beat us…Thats gay pres
Bojangles, I think these players are kinda representing the USA (I think thats what it says on their jersey). And stop using such foul language, I don’t want you to get kicked out of your mommy’s basement on my account
Pres … I hold my head in shame, but I am with you. I don’t necessarily want them to lose, but I hate this team. Everything about them.
i obviously want the USA to win everything but these games are as entertaining as watching the Globetrotters curb stomp the Washington Generals and act like complete ghetto trash while doing it. so yes, that makes you a terrorist prez….
I have a hard time with this one El Pres. I won’t yell at you or insult you, but do you root for Andy Roddick or Serena Williams? Phelps? Do you root for team USA in hockey (of course you do because hockey players are all “great guys”)? Every athlete in every olympic sport is a “pro” and thus, have some level of arrogance and self confidence. Do you hate the track stars? Or the skeet shooting team? Because they are also “pros” in their sports. The criticisms of this team “high diving each other” in blow out victories is also ridiculous. Have you ever read about the 2004 team, which was full of selfish assholes? Every journalist and opposing player said they “didn’t play like a team” and didn’t “seem to like each other.” You can’t have it both ways. This team is playing together and while Carmelo is a turd, they have tons of likeable dudes. Who hates iguodala or Westbrook or CP3 or Chandler? And while Lebron is a goof, what he did during this playoff run certainly takes away from some of the hate for him. I just feel like you sound like all the “old guys” you despise and claim to be different from. This piece sounds like it could have been written by Rick Reilly or worse yet Gerry Callahan or your guy Shaugnessey (sp?). Be careful about becoming irrelevant and out of touch Prez because this piece makes you sound dangerously close to being both.
Expanding on mikehawk’s comment…would you rather have Lebron blow out his knee but the USA team still wins, or would you rather just have the USA team lose but Lebron is fine?
I hope they lose as well. This is the only sport where it’s okay to root against the US. I hope they remove basketball from the Olympics altogether. If there’s no competition, then it shouldn’t be in there.
Most people I know, along with myself, want them to lose. I can’t say I’m rooting against them because that would mean I’m paying attention to the games, which I’m not. I’d rather watch water polo, archery, or most other events than that. I usually root against the Williams sisters too because they’re pompous assholes.
Basketball has been dead to me since the AI Olympic team. That turned me from a huge basketball fan into a guy that despises the sport and all who play it now. I want them to blow off “practice” and lose to some country that has nothing to do with basketball. I wish Greenland had a team and ran some kind of Eskimo D that confused the shit out of us to the point of a loss.
No, it doesn’t make you a terrorist, it confirms that you’re a simple-minded buffoon who can only see things through your stupid Boston-colored glasses. If Garnett and Pierce were on the team you’d have both their cocks in your mouth for a month.
some chick posted this on philly earlier– Maurice hanging out with the Wachowski “sister”… Phuck Philly

Fact, Jews love misery and negativity.
I actually just came out to my co-workers about this last night at happy hour. They called me a terrorist too. It’s okay Pres, I feel you.
i agree 100 percent. team’s got no class. 360 dunks and alley oops when you’re up 60 points? hate it. anyone who’s ever played sports despises the teams that would do this shit
I say Fuck everybody! Everyone talked shit about the Dream Team (including me) being better. Everyone thought this team was playing lazy and starting slow.. in all fairness, they were, but the only time I root for LeBron is when he’s in that jersey on the court. And if you don’t like coach K go fuck yourself.
They’re making a statement, borrowed from Ivan Drago: You will lose.
Let them score 200. It’s not about sportsmanship. It’s about being better than everybody the fuck else. Especially China in all olympic, social and political facets.
You suck dude. 2004 team loses and everyone says they are assholes who don’t care. Now they win and people say it’s by too much. Did you want the Dream Team to lose when Barkley elbowed that guy?
Hipneck, good to see your racism overcomes any national pride. “ghetto thugs”, nice. So are you so knowledgeable about international hoops that you know all the other teams are filled with great guys you’d want to root for?
Washington, Jefferson, etc did think like people on here. They thought the colonies were a great place and people should defend it at all costs. If you were alive then you’d probably be some sniveling backstabber, selling out Washington to the British because you were jealous of him.
KD, harden, and anthony davis only likable players on the team. 92 team would smash them.
@mrnovember – 100% dead on bullseye
In addition…I bet if the team were full of jimmer Fredette’s, David Lee’s and JJ redicks the tone (no pun intended) would be different. Not mad at ya …just sayin’
Im rooting for a Lebron injury or them to lose at least one game so everyone can stop with the Dream Team comparison. I guess that makes me a terrorist too.
Ive been saying this since day one. Watching them get the Gold medals from the last Olympics made me sick to my stomach. Fuck these guys.
agree that not a single guy on this team is likeable and they’re all a bunch of cocky thugs, but can’t ever root against a US team. if there was a team I wouldn’t mind seeing get silver or bronze it would be them though. that being said, if you don’t like coach k you’re a dickhead. guy is literally everything you want from a coach in any sport
i like team usa, fuck elpres
People who care about the Olympics are fucking stupid. Not just team just basketball. Not just team USA. All of it. A total fucking waste of time media jerk-fest with CNN saying it’s fucking “breaking news” when someone wins gold, and everybody falling all over themselves over sports that suck to watch. Get this stupid Olympic shit off the tv so I can watch some 6’4″ 265 lb badass high paid felon knock the snot about of an NFL QB. That’s entertainment. Not some rich kid swimming 6 MPH in a pool slower than I walk. Cocksuckers.
They can’t lose because there are no teams who might beat them. Everybody keeps complaining about the lack of talent with the dream team, yet Lithuania and Croatia were prob better than any team in the comp this year. Spain can’t beat USA because Gasol is a lot worse now that 4 yrs ago, they have no PG because Rubio is injured and they have other players hurt as well. Argentina is ok but Ginobili can’t beat them by himself. All the other teams suck ass. Harden and Iggy for the Gold, prob the two shittiest NBA players to ever get a gold medal.
100% Agree. Couldn’t hate this team any more then I do. I actually haven’t even watched one second of one of their games, just don’t care. Insufferable personalities. If Carmelo was ever not losing or destroying a franchise, I’m pretty sure I’d hate him more then Bron or Kobe. Shit makes me sick.
“people who care about the olympics are fucking stupid.” seems like you care since you have a pretty strong rant about it. if you dont care, dont comment on it. im not gay so when the biggest sporting event in the world is taking place i’m probably gonna tune in and watch. but hey, thats just a sports fan’s point of view. not someone who claims to be a sports fan and picks and choose what sports are important or not
It’s america so I want them to win, but if lebron got hurt and they won without him I’d be way happier. Also hate kobe. Deron, love, russell, melo are all fine by me though
A lot of the people on this thread who are ripping pres are the kinds of people who would support any boneheaded foreign policy move of any US president under the guise of “being American.” Just pure fucking idiots who have no ability to think for themselves and so they subscribe to whatever propaganda bullshit they were taught since grade school. So I am sympathetic toward pres on at least one front: most of the anti-pres commenters here are coming at it with a retard’s mindset. That said, I can’t in good conscience root against my country. I do, however, hope that we win the gold by like 2 points after getting really tested. I wanna see these guys at least have to work for it. Otherwise, it’s not really an accomplishment at all.
@rf211. You’re definitely gay. But that’s cool.
Sorry all the celtics are 96 years old and no way does Rondo play with the worlds best he’s too smug for that fuck the celts team USAs worst year was when paul pierce was the leader 8 years ago or so
What we really need is World Peace, Metta Worldpeace! He’s the Dan Quayle of the contemporary NBA.
anyone who is rooting against USA because they don’t like all the players are faggots
Pathetic morons
