Didn't Baron Pierre de Coubertin (the one who revived Olympic games in its modern form) said: "The most important is to participate." ? He certainly wouldn't apreciate that.

And most of the competitive athletes with a defensive attitude would do the same to gain a better chance at winning the competition. They don’t trust their skills, so they need all the advantages they can get. Total absence of fair play and good sportsmanship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont care who's countries dick is bigger... It used to be about the games. My last love for the games was back in 1984 the time I arrived back from Germany. I was glued to the TV watching the summer games. Now I don't get involved. It is all about money and so blatantly obvious. Even with the controversies... they will do anything to get you to watch.
