Golden Boy still has those two dates reserved to show Olympians on CBS in Oct and Dec. I hope the hell they're planing on signing some of the British or Eastern European fighters, because featuring anything our amateur program sent to London wouldn't be a very good advertisement for the sport. I think Joesph Diaz has some hope simply because he's so young (and he reminds me of Oscar himself, sans Gold Medal) and I liked the Ramirez kid because he's going to College, working fulltime at Starbucks, and training 90 miles away, but any time spent on the rest of Team USA would be a waste.
Complain about the scoring all you want, but our team was putrid, plain and simple. Worst of all was Michael Hunter the Heavyweight, it'd take a team of top trainers working 24/7/365 for ten years in order to just make him the journeyman his Dad was. Please don't waste my time with him, Raushee Warren, etc. I don't need to see them on network TV.....or ever again for that matter.

Watching the Olympics, I was seeing some basic things that even my untrained eyes could see and wondering how supposed "coaches" didn't......and those were our ELITE ams!
