Now that the Beijing Games are over...here’s what I took away from there:
• The father of a former US Olympian was murdered. Then the perpetrator commits suicide. Case closed as far as the DFC Chinese are concerned.
• DFC China won the most gold medals (host countries tend to do this), but the USA still won the most overall.
• The august body of sports elitists known as the International Olympic Committee swept under the rug the allegation that a certain DFC Chinese gymnast was only 14.
• A DFC Cuban taekwondo fighter kicked the referee after being disqualified, resulting in a lifetime ban from the sport. And the guy’s coach called the ruling too strict. BULLS**T!
• The USA won the gold in men’s bastketball. About time!
There, now did I miss much? I think not. Now it’s on to London in four years, and we’ll be lucky if we still see Big Ben and St. Paul’s Cathedral not overshadowed by that big-a** mosque they’re building.
