Georgetown BB Team, America's New Tool for Diplomacy

[taltos]

Nice to see that the Georgetown Basketball team does not change the way that it behaves while overseas. Looks like they provoked a full-scale brawl in a game in Bejing yesterday. Nice to see that they are the same thugs as when Ewing Sr. and John Thompson Sr. were there and that the sons of these two gentlemen are carrying on the tradition. What's next? we send the U football team to teach sportsmanship to a Pop Warner team?

Georgetown is not the one with the history of violence:

Why do you think it was Georgetown that "provoked" the brawl?

The Hoyas are kids. The Chinese team is made up of professional ADULT players and all of them have military experience.

I am going with the past history of the Georgetown men's basketball program. The most that I would concede here is that it could have been a joint effort with both teams being wrong. I have some prejudice here since I feel as much love and respect for Georgetown as most of us feel toward the Jests.

Then you should click on the link I put in my last post and check the history on the Chinese team.


I have very little love for G-town too.

Crappy hosts.

Yeah, sorry Taltos, but you're completely wrong here. This was entirely on the Chinese team.

Can't imagine why he would possibly think that. Maybe it's because they're so competitive or something.
