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..
