Also, who else is basically ignoring the olympics right now? So many other things going on, hard for me to care about spectacle.

I haven't watched a single minute. For me, the entire event started to go downhill when we began sending NBA players. Whatever happened to "amateur" athletics? I doubt many of our athletes even know what the Miracle on Ice refers to. We've become the Soviet Union, all in the pursuit of gold.

Now it is completely commercialized and politicized, to the extent that the actual competitions have become the secondary stories.

The Olympics were never "amateur", it was America sending college kids to compete against pros from the other countries.
