Introduction Compact

The bizzare situation in the marathon got me thinking about the best and worst moments in modern olympic history. In the first few posts I will provide my own top ten list. Feel free to comment, object, expand, or offer your own.

I realize my list is a little bit Amero-centric. That's not so much bias, as the limiting fact that I have only NBC to rely on, and they tend to show Americans only.
