You know what? I don't care about the Olympics. I don't care about any of the sports, I don't care about nations all coming together to compete... I don't care. Growing up I remember just being frustrated that half of the channels on TV were broadcasting sporting events that aren't interesting enough to watch daily- in fact, they are uninteresting enough that they don't bother televising many of the events on an annual basis. Also, it would be the time of year that someone in my family would say, "Oooh, figure skating is on!" Thus, any hope of watching a terrible B movie on the Sci-Fi channel went right out the window.
Some people love the Olympics. Good for them.
I hate that the Olympics have stupid sports. I don't hate sports; I hate stupid sports. I hate the events that have somehow snuck into Olympic competition based on a pity vote. Curling? Please.
And how about this? Olympians of the past would compete in the nude. There simply is no respect for tradition.
The Olympics have nothing to do with Star Wars or zombies.
The Olympics have five rings of different colors for their symbol.
But... how cool would it be to say you were an olympian? That would be pretty sweet. Maybe even for curling.
