Default Is Becky Hammond being unpatriotic?

I believe yes.

A person that was born in the United States, lives in the United States decides to play for team Russia.

If Hammond was of Russian descent this would be understandable, but no, Hammond is American, zero Russian ancestry.

A selfish move by Hammond. Some people have no loyalty to this country. Anything for a buck.

Default Becky Hammond Hero

this Is So Stupid. Right Now,we're The Only Country Who Boasts That It Is So Moral And Christain, And Yet Illeaglly Invaded And Bombed Two Counrtries Over A Myraid Of Lies Told To The American People And The World By A Racist,bafoon,morron Of A President,including Lies About Who Was Behind 9-11(military,u.s. Intelligence,british M-16,and The Mossaud,israeli Intelligence). The U.s. Team Should Have Been Booed Out Of The Stadium During The Opening Ceremonies. Better Yet Major Nations Should Have Protested America's Criminal,immoral,racist War And Boycotted The Oylmpic Games. Becky Hammond Is A Real Hero,not Some Braindead,spinless Jock Like Most Of Todays Atheletes. Like Becky Said"god Loves Russia Too". That Crap About Kill Them Over There So They Won,t Come Over Here Is Not Only Stupid But Wrong. Espescially Since Evidence Now Shows That 9-11 Was A Deliberate Provacation Carried Out By The U.s. Gov, To Trick The Ameican People To Support Agressive Wars In The Middle East, To Futher The Interests Of The Corporate,miltary,industrial Apperatus That Was Fearful Of Losing Its Hold On The Less Privledge Peoples In America And The World After The End Of The Cold War.

I don't. If she didn't get a fair shake in the USA, especially after being one of the best players in the WNBA, then I'm all for her going somewhere. She's just trying to live one ofher dreams by playing in the Olympics.
