Do these guys deserve live television?

September 1, 2006

If for some reason you want to see the latest American team to stink it up in an international competition, ESPN2 will have live coverage of USA Basketball’s bronze medal game against Argentina Saturday morning at 6:30 a.m. ET.

The Yanks are in the bronze medal game after losing to Greece in the semis this morning.As a public service ESPN2 should just show an old Dream Team game from the good old days when we could beat other countries in sports we invented.  Or re-air the Little League World Series championship win by our lads from Columbus, Georgia.  Or show anything else.

Don’t know about you, but I’m sleeping in and watching Andre Agassi’s fun U.S. Open run instead.

Actually, a Canadian invented basketball, so don't feel too bad. ;)

While the US beat themselves against Greece with poor defense, it was still a pretty exciting game to watch. Besides, Argentina/US is going to be a way more interesting matchup than a possibly-Pau-less Spain against Greece.
