If Team USA pouts around the field looking bored with the whole, "We are way to good to be playing on the same field as these (pick an opponent) shlubs" mentality for all the world to see, it would only reinforce the International Olympic Committee's decision to pull the event because the USA is simply too dominating in this particular event.
It's almost as if the IOC completely discounted the fact that there are always Silver and Bronze medals to be won, and that if every team can't realistically compete for the Gold, what's the point in even having the event. A very small-minded thought, indeed. There's a reason why there is only one Gold, and it's reserved for the best of the best. Why not get rid of ping-pong since China and Taiwan dominate that awesome sport? haha.
For Olympics 2008 though, Team USA should just keep having fun, and letting the world know they enjoy the sport... maybe Japan or Australia will give them a decent game in the medal round.
