To be fair, most of the competitors at the olympics train and live in the US. If they didnt, the rest of the world would suck in all sports and the USA would win 200 medals at the games every 4 years. I dont like it, but I dont mind it either.if you're a legit competitor like D1 level but say you're a swimmer many levels below Ledecky or Murphy, not mad at it. Half the Philippine team were Americans and one Canadian lol, swimmers and the women's gymnastics team. IIRC they're all on Power 5 school teams but didn't sniff any kind of medal at these games. We got Caloy and the boxers though, and the WAG team can say they were Olympians.
Now Mondo on the other hand is a world record holder so he would've been a star here. But outside of the Olympics that doesn't mean much sadly, and apparently Sweden backed up the Brinks truck with perks for him and his family so can't be mad at that.
Embiid just a carpetbagger, should've stayed with France and been Twin Towers with Wemby instead of racking up DNPs with Team USA.
