Stop spamming the thread with stupid pictures of the women's soccer team.
Because we have amatuers playing on team Canada on every level, it's their thing. Along comes the Olympics and they are all given the boot for the Pros.
Who are the "professional" javelin throwers, long jumpers, synchronized swimmers, shot putters, and 100 yard dashers, besides the Olympians? Skiers, ski jumpers, curlers, figure skaters, bob sledders, and lugers may not make their living doing those things, but they're definitely "pros" at doing them. All of the people who compete in those events are the best in the world at doing those events. Same should be true for basketball, soccer, hockey, etc.
