(54,770 posts)to broadcast the Olympics (which would be a lot), and hope the people paid to do all the prep and actually broadcast do it like we want.
My guess is we'd still be grousing, assuming we even got a signal.
For the record, thought the USA uniforms were hideous.

(13,616 posts)I am so writing these Olympics off. After they kicked out Rouseff Brazil deserves nothing less. I hope this fiasco opens all the old wounds from the World Cup, and rips open some new ones. Between this and the upcoming World Cup in Russia, the very idea of international sports may be damaged forever, and good riddance, because all it is are a bunch of old men trotting out exploited young kids so that patriotism seems fresh.
