Do you think Mexico will field a summer Olympic team in Beijing?

Althought I enjoy this joke and I tell it, I don't think that this is the place for it.  Some people may be offended.  There is a time and place, but not here.\n\nAnd yes, they will field a team.

Definitely Mexico is capable of beating any of the elite teams, mexico has always been the "almost" team because of scenic panic at the right and decisive monent and not because of lack of talent, with concentration and right attitude, yes they can ,they have done several times before and recently.

Group D is comprised of: Mexico, Iran, Angola, Portugal\n\nIt is a fair assumption that Mexico, and probably Portugal will make it to the next round.\n\nAfter that, things will become way more difficult especially according to the seedings. However, I don't believe Mexico has the talent to dream of a medal. We have seen that fortune helps at times, but this year the Mexican team is not a medal-caliber squad!

I think that because of the team it has, Brazil is one of the strongest candidates to win the world cup. However, the Czech Republic showed to be very strong and firm (even though they defeated the US... I am so disappointed) as well as Spain was the bomb today.  I don't think that Mexico will win. Reason being, they show strength when they play against Central American countries, but when they face a strong team, bye bye.  I would like a unusual team to win the world cup, for example the Czech Republic, Netherlands, even an African country... that would be a surprise, but oh well, let's just wait.

Don't listen to these people. I think anything is possible. Although I honestly don't think they can get the cup since there are so many other great teams out there. But I think they will definitly make it to higher rounds,  even though they lost from Mexico :(\n\nGO IRAN :)

Frankly, I doubt it...nothing against Detroit, but it's a city built around an industry. It lacks a great deal of culture or sophistication that would draw people to it for the "Olympic" experience. Might as well have them in Flint....

It might happen again, but I doubt it.  I think if we're going to see Summer Olympics in the US again anywhere, it'll be in a larger city (perhaps Chicago, New York, possibly Orlando).\n\nThere's certainly a lot of economic benefits when the Olympics come to town, and living in Columbia, MO, I think it'd be fun to see them just up the road a bit. :)

How about having the olympics in an African or South American city.  I know the olympics have not taken place in Africa and I am pretty sure about South America too.  Just my two cents.

OK,that made me laugh out loud, but I hope you are prepared for the backlash of angry yahooligans who are animal lovers. But still, that is making me crack up. In answer to your question, Yes it will be an Olympic sport, right after they add dolphin netting and whaling.

Yes, good wasn't it? Mexico looking good so far. It's a tight game though. (This is all being dictated to me by my son).

He would probably be, yet after the world cup he will be taking over the National Squad, I think that is the best move the mex federation could do. I really do not beleive that a national squad should have naturalized players and lets not talk about the coach that mex has, I really do not like him. But yes Hugo would be a great coach at any team he chooses to coach.

Actually, Mexico has a decent side.  Traditionally, they play very well at home and of course they will not have that advantage ...\nReally, they probably only finished behind the US in the CONCACAF because they sloppily threw together their qualifying squads, knowing that they are pretty much a lock (for qualification).\nPortugal is really the only real powerhouse in their group.  I think beating Iran and Angola is certainly possible, so they should advance past the first round, despite what that dude wrote about a quick trip home ...\n\nUM ... YOU "DOT" IT?

hi, I'm Mexican, and i think Iran has a huge possibility of kicking Mexico "as*" in the world cup. Iran has a great team this year, a lot of international players:Ferydoon Zandi, Ali Karimi, Rahman Razaei, Mehdi Mahdavikia, \nvahid Hashemain, and i don't remember if they are all the internationals, but also in the national league the goalkeeper and the defenders are in a good shape.\nin the other hand Mexico is not in his best moment, they have problems with the coach and some players are in the team just because of the "friendship" with Lavolpe.\nso my definitive answer is sadly (for me, of course). Iran could kick Mexico this year in the world cup.

Yes, slight problem with this theory though and that is Softball is on the way out. Yes, it will be done in Beijing 2008, but London 2012 has said "No" to softball. And it's unknown whether or not the bids for the 2016 Games have even got the sport considered.

Absolutely not.\n\nThe U-20 and U-18 teams have been miserable failures in the Youth tournaments. Heck, Canada and the USA have been picking them apart. Mexico will qualify for South Africa, but it won't be easy for them.
