It’s a delegation representing the U.S.,not a team.

For his whole competitive career Boitano was quiet on the matter of his sexuality and now instead of representing the US Delegation for what he achieved, he is being sent because he is gay - and it was Obama that urged him to come out. Seems to me, it wasn't something he wanted to do.

I guess my thinking is what does it matter - what does someone’s sex life have to do with skating, skiing, teaching, or whatever.
