Did you believe the naysayers?

Perhaps you've noticed that I get frustrated by annoying questions from sports reporters. In today's installment, I bring you three questions NBC’s Julie Foudy asked of several members of the U.S. women's soccer team moments after they defeated Brazil to win the Olympic gold medal.

• "After all the adversity this team has been through, losing your leading goal scorer in the very last game, was there ever a moment where you doubted that you would get to this stage?"
• "When you guys lost that first game to Norway, when there were doubters who said this team can’t do it without Abby Wambach and some of the other stars that were missing, what was your response as captain?"
• "When people would say again you know that maybe they don’t have enough, that when there were naysayers, when you showed this collective effort, what was the conversation as this Olympics went on?"
