Don't think so. I believe Ward kissed every player who didn't play (Roster limitations?).

You could say that about 90% of the sports in the Olympics.

It would be nice if the American girls could just suck it up for the medal ceremony. Of course they're disappointed, but geez, they just won a silver medal in the Olympics. Some of those girls are bordering on disrespectful with the frowns as their silver medal was placed around their neck.

Well, considering they couldn't do any worse than silver going into the Olympics, yeah, they are disappointed.

They don't have to be "happy" about second place but they could at least act gracious.

They take way too long to give out the medals, then they have to give them all flowers, one-at-a-time?
Congratulations ladies! Great effort. We are proud.

I thought they were gracious. Of course they're upset right after a loss.

They were devastated and a whole bunch of them were gracious, but jeesh what do you expect them to do, most of them want to hide in a hole and go cry.

They may be doing the Roc symbol because it's a triangle, three sides for the third gold medal. Who knows.

Chu was choking but she gave a wave and thank you to the audience. She looked genuinely enjoying that moment at least.
