Well, they lost, but their excuse according to Reuters:
"The US got lucky", and for me, the icing on the cake, "Experience prevailed over talent today, and I regret that," added France's Frederick Bousquet.
And as for only paying attention to sports when they're on at the Olympics... where the hell can I watch televised badminton any other time of year?
