Maybe you're talking about the Road to Redemption special. If that's the case, that came on yesterday at 7.

They're actually calling it "The Road to Redemption?"

Heh...sadly, I see that road ending with us getting our butts handed to us by Argentina again. :wink:

Well if what we did to them in 2006 is any indication to what's going to happen this year, I highly doubt that.

Not true! Argentina lost that game on purpose because they didn't care for anything other than the gold medal! Argentina let America win that game. Last years game didn't count either because their best players were not there. It's ok for them to lose w/o their best players but not America.



It only counts when Argentina wins! :lol:

wouldnt it be ironic if the "redemption" team lost again to argentina? having said that ..i have to admit this is the best US olympic team since the 1996 edition. this roster, while star-laden is still slightly flawed (not a lot of really good shooters, and a lack of big men) so we shall see if these flaws catch up to them, or if the talent is simply too much to overcome for other countries.
