Olympics don't mean a thing. I'm in training for the 65 and over "Q" Course!! I've got excellent times right now!! The 1/4 mile sprint/waddle in 10 minutes flat. The high speed 3 mile Ruck march with a heavy 10 pound ruck; 4 hours, 15 minutes. (15 minute rest break at the 2 hour mark) Course is 3 days long with 10 hours of blissful sleep each night!! I understand that if you pass, you get a moldy, moth eaten, faded Green Beret with "Property of J Kerry" printed on the inside!! I can't wait!!

An all-inclusive Olympic games should not give out medals that keep rich abusive gold-miners in business. Using precious metals as adornment and decoration on these fine citizens of principle is disrespectful. Surely our idealistic social justice minded athletes aren't interested in trinkets made of bronze, silver, and gold. They are interested in freedom, peace, and fairness.
Awards should not be bronze, silver, and gold, awards should just be....... FABULOUS
I'm starting a new movement to show that those who would support the Olympics and their drive to exploit young athletes for profit don't represent the true spirit of America...

LOL...I'm In....
How about an Olympics for "Stressed Out, Over Worked, Frustrated, Need to get away on a Vacation” Normal People (LOL) who really, really need some form of release Olympics. It could be a side-by-side obstacle course with Bozo Punching Bags with interchangeable faces of people who are driving you nuts;or just plain ass clowns who need a good beating. No Metals awarded, whomever runs the course in the fastest time, and eliminates the most Bozo Punching Bags will be declared the winner, oh and the other competitor is fair game; anything too win...

We've always had decent representation of the gay community at the Winter Olympics - you never need to look any further than our competitors in men's figure skating.

It's a shame they can't send his spoiled ass home immediately. If his travel was paid for he should be given an invoice for the cost incurred for him to go and throw a tantrum and be a national disgrace.

I'd put that tantrum-throwing Mfer on a cargo ship back to the USA with a 30-day layover in Nigeria!

Ranking people into 1st, 2d, and 3rd places is just another example of white privilege attempting to make a class society.

I'd give him a little something extra in his drink and let him wake up the next day in NORTH Korea.

Ditto, my favorite. I will also watch a few other selected events, as I'd like to see some of the troops (including 1 QP) who are competing in specific things. Frankly, I don't think being righteously disgusted with NBC Olympic coverage or them in general is going to have an "NFL effect." These cultural attaches with headsets don't dictate what I do or don't watch. Screw them (that's my PG-13 version).
