    A (would-be) returning silver medalist is a bit more than a sideshow.

    Is it akin to Athing Mu not making the U.S. track team?

    USA Basketball won't let it leak because it will make them look unpatriotic but considering who is available, I'm sure there were a couple of guys who said no because of the short notice and they already had vacation plans or whatever. And it's a last-minute change because up until yesterday there didn't seem to be any issue based on their social media postings.

    The folks on NBA Radio on XM were speculating that Jaylen's anti-Nike bias could be why he was blatantly skipped.

    I was surprised the Tour de France is starting this week. I'm guessing more than a few will stick around for the Olympics.
