Life goes on with or with out the Olympics.

It seems sad to me that the attitude some atheletes have. Take Sweden's wrestler Ara Abrahamain. The guy took 3rd. He got a bronz. He removed his medal and threw it and stormed off.

Now his coach blames politics. Ok, yes we all know politics has a lot to do in the games. Or do we?
I did not see his preformance. I don't know how well he did or didn't do.

But all in all, he should be thankful he even made it that far. Most people don't. What about one of the "replacements", I am sure they would have stood proudly on the podium with the bronze metal.

As long as we are on the topic, what about the so of the other "questionable" things going on.
Gymnastics has 2 girls who barely look 12 yet their country says they are 14 and legal to compete.

The little girl who lipsynch the song in the opening of the olympics because the real singer was not "cute" enough????

And what about the 41 yr old American female swimmer who underwent multiple drug tests to prove she was not doing steriods or any other drug enhancing stuff, just so she could compete. She is just thrill to be there.

Yet we will forget all about this till the next Olympics.
All I can say is I hope that Vancouver BC Winter Olympics will have less contriversy that what is happening here and now.

Mexico took a bronze in female synchromnized 10 meter platform diving.
Do you think they threw there metals? No they were proud of the achievements.

So buck up, and get over yourself. Put the drama behind you and get back to the games and compete. Be thankful your there. You could be sitting home watching the Olympics instead
