Are the Olympics destined to b overshadowed
from the way the whole world is reacting to the olympics being in china could this be the worst ever Google Page Ranking job any country has undertaken?
i can just see protest after symbolic protest happening! its going to b more about the politics rather than the athletics...

Re: Are the Olympics destined to b overshadowed
The Olympic ideal went out of the window when shamateurism became the norm.
Most of the world ganged up against South Africa because of apartheid (human rights) but strangely the world seems to be reluctant to do the same to China. So the Olympic Games will not be disrupted by protests. Don’t forget a gold medal is far more important than Tibet or Nepal.
