I say humbug to the Olympics. The games are a slick way for members of the Olympics committees and "family" to rake in huge amounts of cash at the expense of gullible athletes striving for a token gold medallion.
Consider some of the sports featured: beach volleyball, especially showing attractive young females in bikinis, equine dressage (dance steps for smart horses), water polo, pole vaulting, field hockey. Now, would any crazed fan now watching these games ever tune in to them if not during the Olympics? A resounding no!
Olympic members and family have convinced the world to watch because they market the events as national contests, involving patriotic pride and jingoistic fervor. Stop the Olympics scam!
