Not the most important thing happening today but always nice to see Americans winning around the globe.
America hasn't controlled this thing for 15 years, since 1995, which is the oldest trophy in International sports competition I didn't know until today.
Not exactly a lifetime, but a while for winning something with our name attached to it. Europe is all bent because of a court case that had a lot to do with the race, and thus they claim an unfair advantage to the US. because the court was in New York.
Sore losers. ;)

"They had a strategy, they got a little help from the legal system in New York and that always makes it difficult for us Europeans and that gave them advantages.Boo friggin hoo.....Of Course, every time Americans win we must have done something wrong. I mean, we always cheat so much over here to win these international competitions with such stiff opponents (yea right).
Sore losers. ;)
Yahoo! News: "VALENCIA, Spain – Still bundled against the cold in his white foul-weather gear, software tycoon Larry Ellison hoisted the America's Cup high in the air, then planted a kiss on the oldest trophy in international sports.'Valencia — muchas gracias!' the self-made billionaire screamed, following the ride of his life across the Mediterranean on one of the most remarkable boats ever built.The America's Cup is back in American hands.It was swept away from Europe by Ellison's space-age trimaran, which has a gigantic wing for a sail and easily sped ahead of two-time defending champion Alinghi of Switzerland to complete a two-race sweep in the 33rd America's Cup on Sunday.'I am so proud of this team, I am so proud to be part of this team, and I am especially proud to bring the America's Cup, once again, after a long absence, back to the United States of America,' said the 65-year-old Ellison, the CEO of Oracle Corp." more
