Why does 'Team USA' have at least 2 aussies and a british guy ??



Dunno, reckon the Aussie's would have done f all and just whined a lot.

The Brit would have taken control and snatched victory from the jaws of defeat whilst smoking a pipe.

His tactics would have been to make every man wear a big woolly polo neck jumper and drink lots of cocoa.  At least half the crew would have to have wounds pick up in various military campaigns around the globe.

One crew member would have no legs, his name would be "Shorty". There would have to be a least one Scots sailor hopefully he would have red hair to fill 2 stereotypes and his name would be "Ginger McTavish".

At night they would put on little theatre shows to raise morale.  Half the crew would dress as women.

This is what won it basically - thems the tactics used.  Can I have several million dollars please?
