@matigo I remember when the Olympics was supposed to be about a global (for the most part) competition between the best of the best athletes, and to challenge ourselves as a species. Those days does fast and the Olympics have become a political sledgehammer for countries to toss around and attempt to brag about how good they are. Surprisingly little appears to be about the actual games, or the athletics, and quite a lot more about the posturing going on around the whole spectacle.
To say that I am disappointed is an understatement.
