It would be nice to see Lucas playing with a color different than this ugly red, but the dumb brazilian coach prohibits me from cheering to Brazil. GO GRÊMIO!!!

Do you see the professional boxers participating? No. So the olympics should comprise teams made up of players not on professional contracts. I don't really see why this isn't already the case, since it's slightly contraversial for an amateur sporting event to allow professional sportsmen to compete.

I can't imagine there's a club that would require much prompting. I can see why some of the players would want to go though, both to get your foot in that NT door and because the Olympics are still the Olympics, even if it's not really your sport's showcase competition. Too bad it infringes on the club season though. “these kids could decline and stay with their clubs, but they have to feel the pressure of, “Well, if I turn them down now, they may never call me up again.””
