The Olympics
Wow! I flat out love the Olympic Games! Summer, Winter…doesn’t matter. Besides the events, there is always the stories of the athletes. Those who have overcome incredible odds and extraordinary circumstances to be competing with the best in the world.
But the games are not without their faults. Here are some of the things that are right with the Olympics and and in my opinion, wrong with the Olympics.
Right:
– Greece : such history, tradition and the fans are amazing
– Michael Phelps : simply incredible performance
– Iraq soccer : something for them to cheer about
– Women’s softball : dominant
– Paul Hamm, Courtney Patterson : although not without controversy, tremendous displays of tenacity and never quit attitude
Wrong:
– Men’s basketball : over-hyped, cry babies
– Banned substances : several infractions, disgraceful
– Men’s 100 : totally disrespectful to the sport, especially the Americans
