What do you expect - when the head of the IOC is more
interested in kissing ass at the opening ceremony than
being with his ill wife (who, I'm saddened to say,
subsequently died) - THIS is the body from which people
expect intelligence ?
And they give the "honor" of lighting the flame to
Freeman (who was vocal about an Abo protest at the
opening, and supported it - did they do this just to
shut her up ??), instead of someone who has really
contributed to sport in this country - someone like
Bradman..
BTW, have a look at www.silly2000.com = best "olympic"
site yet...
Sorry for the OT = the whole Olympic thing is a
complete and total cock-up, IMHO...
