I think the Olympics should be stopped. It's a load of shite, it's boring, it's obscenely expensive and no one cares anymore.

I'm the most sensible person here. :levi:

The IOC is the fucking Vatican of sport - a shower of institutionalised tosspots who sold their souls decades ago for the corporate dollar.

An alternate, fully amateur IOC should be established, and the games should be of a small enough scale that they can be held in any country in the world. Fuck the professionals, let's see the youth of the world meeting in Albania or Kenya to play games for the sheer fun, excitement and pure competitiveness of it all.

Years of disruption beforehand followed by decades of debt afterwards!

The IOC is a cruel and avaricious taskmaster...
I was in L.A. during the games there. It were amusingishly, sorta. The games kind of disappeared into the city, lost in all that SoCal.
Yep. I went to some of the cycling, but otherwise it was all just noise among noise...
