And this is a symptom of why I am no longer interested in the Olympics. I mainly lost interest when they started allowing professional athletes to compete. Plus now, based upon various news items, the IOC is riff with graft and bribery.

In the old days, the Olympics was a venue were aspiring athletes got to get a second chance of turning pro, or at the very least a way for them to get recognition for their hard work. Now in many cases, it is now a bunch of multi-millionaires feeding their somewhat narcissistic drives.

I won't even go into my belief kids under 18 should not compete in the Olympics.
