I disagree. It should be the best athletes there are. Period. We really suffered back when we put up our amateurs against the USSR's "amateurs." It's a more level playing field now.

RE:To me, the Olympics is track and field. I agree. Saw Charles Barkley saying that the Tour de France is not a sport as well as swimming. Anything he sucks at is not a sport I am sure. Do you consider cycling or swimming sports? Golf is more of a skill than a sport in my book.
