There has been a lot of talk about the problems in Brazil and the powers that are in charge of the olympics without much empathy for the average Brazilian citizen. The story about Lochte and his teammates makes me upset that they'd rather smear a city and country than fess up to a dumb drunk move while representing the US of A. More importantly the story of Carmelo makes me proud to be a basketball fan and hopeful that the American founded sport continues to flourish world wide.
