I guess im not really that surprised about Toni but Rossi should have been on the team IMO and I think they will regret not choosing him. He was their best player in the Euro Cup in 08. I think it's stupid that just because he plays in Spain, he didn't get chosen. He decided to play nationally for Italy over USA even though he grew up in New Jersey because of his heritage and thus showed his loyalty but this is how he gets repaid. The fact that he doesn't play for an Italian club should not matter.
