You and I both, Kath, and I'm usually really into the Olympics. But all of the drama like the above alone is enough to tell them F off. Then the other reasons to begin with and their genocide.
Many of the athletes themselves were talking of boycotting but haven't seen many do so. I think they should all boycott, the country as a whole should have announced a boycott. And then kill their TV coverage as well.
“You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named "Bush", "Dick", and "Colin." Need I say more?” - Chris Rock

It's time we standup against wrongs and atrocities.
It's time the major corps take hits in THEIR income for not giving a shit!

Why the Hell should I have to press “1” for ENGLISH?
Count me out.
Sucks for the athletes, but then, IMO, they should voluntarily not be going. Not cool with the Jimmy Carter National boycott, but a LOT of these athletes are allegedly peacenik, humanitarian types. They need to put their money where their mouths are as well.
