but hopefully in 2012 if they dont take tkd out for not having enough sponsors then i still would like to see the US team win because they are from our country and no mater what we have to have loyalty to our nation .... even at times it might be messed up ...

I think there is a little bit of a difference of being loyal to your country vs. being loyal to the country's commercalization of sports.  I cheer on the US teams but if there something great going on for another country I cheer them on as well.

I was just happy that the US did wonderful and walked away with a number of metals expecially in the TKD events.  Many people believe that the US waters down everything and it was nice to show the world that the US can compete in things such as TKD and represent the US and Taekwondo very well.

Not to mention that our taekwondoists were far kinder to the judging and referee staff than a taekwondoist from some other country.
