I'm honestly more interested in the Paralympics this year than the Olympics.

I genuinly think
That there is more interest in the paralympics this year than the 'main event'. Nice advert.
Edit: See I told you! :)

I think any right minded individual would think that
People who have overcome enormous difficulties (losing a body part, being bullied for being different, etc etc) and still outperforming 99% of the human race is a huge lesson to us all.

If I met an Olympic athlete I would really struggle not to say:
"So...can you do anything ELSE?"

Shits all over the CGI BBC intro thingy.
There's a time and a place for computer graphics etc.

Everyone should check out the documentary 'Murderball' which was on BBC4 recently.
It's about wheelchair rugby and the rivalry between USA & Canada. The players are incredibly inspiring and the games are nailbiters.

With the Olympics now generally about selling stuff like burgers, fizzy pop, petrol & stuff, the Paralympics does seem to have more meaning as an event
