Cynical folks are desperate to do a downer on this that and the other, and all I say to them is go f*** themselves.
£ XX billions of pounds spent on this waste of time, what happened the amateur ethos that used to drive the Olympics? Now a days even the most useless olympian seems to think they are some sort of Demi-God. They do nothing unless theres a serious amount of money in it for them, they won't tolerate anything but the best by way of accomodation or transport.
Worse still is that the Mega Sponsors have taken over these games for their own corporate greed, It's no more than a giant advertizing exercise where they can show their products to the world, they Crush without consideration those that have the temerity to use the Olympic Rings logo in a shop display unless they pay for the privelige first.
Amatuers have become Professionals, any Camaraderie, sense of fairplay or sportsmanship between competitors has long since vanished, they even resort to cheating in order to win even before the Games have started.
In these Austere times I can see nothing but a massive haemorrhaging of Tax payers money just to appease a few bright eyed and bushy tailed Olympic single theme obsessives.
I really don't care im I am cast as a Cynical downer, but I'm totally hacked off with the Costs Involved and also of the UK's medias misguided belief that every man Jack of us is in the least bit Interested in this Giant Olympic Ego trip.
Roll on the Closing ceremony, then let us take stock of how much each little Medal has cost the Tax payer, It Certainly won't cost the Games sponsors themselves who'll undoubtedly profit from the games, but It will fall to Joe Bloggs the Tax Payer to pick up the final tab.
