i care. the athletes that get caught in this have earned the right to compete and stupid politics should not ruin this opportunity for them.

yes, I stand corrected, I care too that it is the athletes that will suffer because of the politicians.

I hope they aren't using the US refs from the women's hockey gold medal game. What a farce. It was as bad as the French figure skating judge. Sports for the love of the game is now a forgotten concept in the good ole USA.

Somehow, i think the IOC execs will have much larger offshore bank accounts once these games are over. They even awarded a single company the entire food and beverage contract, so they can charge whatever they like.

Greed and corruption everwhere. It's a shame as the spirit of the Olympics was far different than this.
