There was a time when repersenting your nation meant something...

hmmmm

Dwyane Wade: I’m reading a lot of reports coming out about my comments re: the Olympics and compensation. And I want to clear this up personally... I responded 2 a specific question asked by a reporter on my thoughts of Olympians being paid. I never asked to be paid to PLAY. What I was referencing is there is a lot of Olympic business that happens that athletes are not a part of - and it’s a complicated issue. BUT my love 4 the game & pride 4 USA motivates me more than any $$$ amount. I repped my country in 2004 when we won the bronze medal and stood proudly to receive our gold medal in 2008 in Beijing. It’s always been an honor for me to be a part of the USA Olympic family and I’m looking forward to doing it again in London this summer
