I mean nobody scores much off of Ueno..they may have had more runs against the other teams if they had gone a different path but I am not sure they would have done a whole lot more off of Japan. Everyone would probably agree that the 2008 team had a better lineup and they scored 1 run off of her in the championship game With the roster sizes being what they are, and runs being at a premium regardless of how good you hit, it is tough to have DP type players on the roster....The whole scene at these Olympics has made me grumpy but now I’m just ticked off. Got up in the middle of the night to watch Japan play at a level above what the US is capable of. They deserved the win.
Can’t help but wonder how a younger, looser, less experienced, nothing to prove, nothing to lose Team USA might have done.
Our game plan was tight, off balance and uber conservative in all 6 games.
Where’s the fun? Where’s the risk? Where’s our swagger? Where’s our game?
Great job by the players.
