Huge congrats to Team USA on taking home the gold!

p.s. turns out you guys still can't pull it off without some help from the Mexicans and Canadians👍

Props to the bench, but honestly, Buslje, Markovic, Jokovic, and Vican are the real heavy hitters here. 😬 😛

Ratko Rudić is a total legend. Whatever he touches basically turns to gold. Seriously, the guy is a phenomenon.

Check out this clip from his interview at the Olympics in Athens...

Reporter: Coach Rudic, do you actually believe the water polo at these Olympics is getting way more aggressive than it used to be?
Ratko Rudic: Yeah, I do, and there's a pretty simple reason for it.
Reporter: What's the reason?
Ratko Rudic: It's because They let All Thes Soviet satellite nations in under their own pseudo-countries. Kazakhstan for crying out loud. Everyone knows they are a violent people by nature. Didn't anyone on The Olympic Committee watch Air Force One ?? They hijacked the President's plane for God's sake. Of course they wouldn't hesitate to throw elbows like it's nobody's business.
Jeff Powers: that Artemiy Sevostyanov Guy and i need to taka IT outside. I'll show them what we do to people that hijack the President's plane.

Let them suffer. If it bothers you, deal with it—America is the world champion.

It seems to me everyone knows they have a naturally aggressive streak. Honestly, didn't anyone on the IOC watch Air Force One ?? They actually took over the President's plane! So, I guess it's no surprise they don't think twice about throwing elbows whenever they can.

The poet was just pointing out that half the team is made up of Mexicans and Canadians. 😬

Someone clearly tipped off Sutlić that people are tearing him apart on every forum out there. 😬

Yep..every single name sounds like Manojlo, Michael, Demetrius, Abraham, Mustafa, or Burhanudin.

Did you hear this idiot? "I just hope they don't land at an empty airport"😵

They won't, you monkeys. Just as long as there isn't a Mass happening at the exact same time😬 What morons on the national networks... honestly, it’s embarrassing🙏

They’re singing "My Homeland" loud and clear for the Canadians and Mexicans.

Hand over their hearts and they even know the anthem by heart.

Someone just shut that idiot up already.

Well, at least they aired that part, since the broadcast was such a mess anyway...

It was nice seeing our team singing the anthem, looking happy and truly singing from the heart. They can have all the gold in the world for that. I hope the soccer players were watching them sing the anthem too. 🙄

Kudos to our American brothers. You guys definitely caught a bit of luck starting from the semifinals, and honestly, we have to call it what it is, right? You gave it everything you had, but we weren't having any of it! Hehe. This Olympics is going to be legendary, but if the medals follow this pattern, it’ll be the US, then America, then Mexico.
