Come for the bribery and corruption, stay for the hissy fits by figure skaters, x-games prima donnas, and Putin without a shirt.
If there is a worse governing sports body in the world than the IOC I would be amazed. Crack addicts have more integrity than those old men. Nonetheless, every time the games come around my wife and I camp out in front of the TV. I hate the human interest stories, hate any sport than requires judges, hate all the corporate tie-ins and ads but just the same, we try to tune out the bullshit and watch for sports themselves.
So here's a thread to discuss, bitch, and praise. Have it my friends.
