Yeah, yeah yeah, I should definitely clarify what I wrote below...
I listen to a lot of talk radio and you hear various pundits bantering 
back and forth on this topic.  I was mostly regurgitating what I heard 
on the radio, not stating my own position.  I LOVE the Olympics.  I am 
one of those who will watch the games (summer and winter) 24/7.  The 
purity of athletic competition should not be spoiled by politics...but 
people are definitely talking boycott..
