You thought 1988 was the worst....

Today, males make up less than 5% of Somalia's population.

Check out the 2008 team.

My uncle is on the 1980 and 1983 team. I'm gonna ask my dad and see if he knows where the man is located. I know for sure he is one of the pioneers of basketball in the Somali community, him and his brother are both around 6'5" and 6'7" and they live in MPLS and Ohio.

Some S-Netters probably know them by name.

I could TRY to spot him in the photo, but all the motherfockers look alike.
