Olympic Traitors

          I hope everyone here is cheering for the United States and praying that we get more medals than China (maybe not that last part). Wouldn't you be ashamed to cheer against your own country? Well everyone, I would like to say that my mom is a traitor. A traitor, I know, how shocking. She cheers rigorously for every Jamaican in the track and field races. In one instance, there were no Jamaicans in the qualifier. "Yes," I exclaimed, "You can finally cheer for the Americans." "Oh no," she said, "I must cheer for Trinidad and Tobago. Root for our other Caribbean Island friends." But of course, in everything else where there only the major countries compete (swimming, diving, gymnastics...), she wants the Americans to win. Now, don't you agree that she must be a traitor. You can't cheer against us, then for us. It doesn't work that way. USA all the WAY.

            Also, just in is the fact that so far Jamaica is in second with medals per capita which means that she gets even more bragging rights. You can check out this cool website for more per capita facts.
