Jeez, the Dream Team got beat again, 81-78, to Yugoslavia. George Karl is sure having a great year; first the Bucks collapse, and now his team gets out-gutted in the final minutes by Vlade Divac. Now, the US won't even medal in the World Championships, even though we're hosting the damn thing, and will have to qualify just to play in the next Olympics. Maybe Mr. Yglesias was right; if you give these other countries just an inch they'll violate you in your own crib. Next time, just send the Lakers.
