# ^this
it has gone from representing one's country in a fair(ish) competition against the world, to representing one's self in a completely skewed and extremely biased environment.

# i think it could be saved.
first off, we test for drugs. any country with any one athlete who is found to have used performance-enhancing drugs or human growth hormone or any of that has all of their athletes banned from competition for the next dozen or so years and all medals they won in the previous dozen years revoked as well.

if i weren't opposed to capital punishment, i'd suggest we kill them all, too.

# who would be left?
i think if they test positive for performance enhancing drugs / growth hormones, they should have to take mind altering drugs, like LSD. So when the gun fires they are there at the start line, trying to peel it up and catch the bugs under it.

# how bout just the low grade gear
that or give them all pyotie, thats natural... and lasts a good week.

# I'd go the other way
and say that all athletes should be drugged (not just the performance enhancing ones, but they'd still play a major part), get robotic implants and spikes on their knees.

THEN I'd watch.

# A farce where officials of the hosting country deliberatily falisfy
documents in order to get underage competitors in?
Reminds me of when there was a movement recently to get an Avril Lavigne video to the venerable "most watched" post. Someone commented "What a shame they had to cheat to get it there."

# the world is becoming a deceitful place
it just takes a massive sporting event to get it to really shine. I have the luxury of watching merkan television up here in Canuck-land. And my , it is incredibly biased towards the competitors from the great states. Even when they come next to last, they still did the best.... In patriotic eyes.

# No different here in Auslandia.
I wanted to find out something about a Merkin athlete the other day so I went to the local paper's website. All I could find was info about Auslandian athletic prowess and a few footnotes about for'n competitors. Unless of course they fucked up then it's "OMG! hahahaa Laugh your arse off at this poor bastard as his guts spill out all over mat because he tried to lift too much" or whatever.

It's no different when the cricket's on. Auslandian team wins "OMFG THEY'RE HEROES I WANNA BOOF EM!" and if the other side wins it's not "Good show, Johnny Foreigner!" it's "Oh our boys must've been having a bad day. They've worked so hard, must've been the smog in the air, the noise of the crowd, the colour of the umpires codpiece" or whatever. No possibility that Johnny may have actually played a better game that day!

cunts.

# i think canadian tele is a bit less biased,
its like we're the misfit kids who are just happy to be there, and we are trying to make friends however we can..

# I watched five minutes of seven's (primary olymipic b/caster) coverage
on friday. An Aussie had finished 10th. And oh what a performance that was, a fantastic effort, a comeback from an injured toenail and a dramatic fight back from 11th place. They even interviewed him. Fuck the winner. I still dunno who won the race.
