Another Sweep

Americans are often portrayed as boorish, but last night the Greek fans pretty obnoxious, as their booing and chanting delayed the start of the men's 200 meter dash. The announcers thought that the crowd was purposely preventing the start of the race under the theory that America was somehow responsible for the positive drug test of a popular Greek sprinter.

Couple that with the behavior of the crowd in the gymnastics venue, and the Greeks sport fans aren't looking so great.

The Americans eventually stuck it to them in the 200, however, going 1-2-3.
