Does anyone


really think that the Olympic Games are about anything other than a display of political and corporate power to the world?

Olympic Fallacies

Really, they are a joke. Athletes can even compete in professional sports and then regain 'amateur' status to take part in the Olympic Games again. Look at hockey teams, or figure skaters. How utterly ridiculous!

The Olympics, for me anyway, lost any credibility they had decades ago: Political propaganda, rigged judging, steroid use, need I go on?

I really think they're a disgusting waste of money, partly MY money, through taxation. People continue playing their silly political games.
