The USA womens basketball team wants more attention

Saturday's victory was the Americans' 34th consecutive in Olympic play, and the United States is gunning for a fifth consecutive gold medal. And yet, for some reason, there is more attention on the U.S. women's soccer team, which hasn't accomplished nearly as much.

Bird isn't as upset about that as her teammate and good friend Diana Taurasi, but she also finds it perplexing. She said the team's success is so taken for granted that a couple of fans asked her Friday who the United States was playing in the first game, and when she answered, "Croatia," they said, "Oh, we don't want to go to that one."

"If a men's team would have done what we've done, I think people would be applauding them and congratulating them," Bird said. "And for whatever reason, when it's women's basketball, it's, 'Oh, the competition is terrible!' or 'Oh, they should do that.' It's expected, and no one really truly appreciates it. They expect it. And for some reason, soccer doesn't have that. Maybe it's because they lose a couple times."
