As for badminton.... I never knew how much of a work out it would be until I was forced to learn to play it in order to satisfy my College curricula and graduate.
I know, a lot of my friends are ignorant to it and see it as "a girls game"....I play twice a week, so they constantly rip me for it....but there is no other game that will make me ache like that one. I love it
EDIT: The US Basketball team were still very very good - albeit a little over-agressive in defence - but I think they were just beaten by the better team....twice Seriously though, I just don't think that the team is as strong as it used to be, they're missing some key players....thats why I hate it when I still hear commentators calling them the "dream team".
