That was NO Apology. It was a Word Salad nonsense.
To the Olympics Committee: I and my family will NOT watch one minute of your demonic spectacle, aka Paris Olympics.

I use to love watching the olympics. Waited four years back in the day, but in good conscience can not watch them this year. Not sure how you do an exorcism on an entire event, but they need one.

Yeah, that’s a good idea. Put up a huge drawing/statue of Mohammad in drag.

Haha. That’s not an apology. That’s well we are proud of it and if you are offended by it, sorry but that’s on you…

That’s not an apology

If that was an apology...it would win the gold medal for lameness.

It was...if you were offended by our garbage, you are garbage.

Gay Par-ee,

Seine City,

Who doesn’t see through this Charade?

Whoever provided the stamp of approval should have expected to be cancelled.

Dionysus or Bacchus was the patron GOD of the very violent and Perpetual conquering WAR state of the Roman Empire.

One silly a@@ musical slap on “The Last Supper” with a PAGAN god overlaying the entire meaning of that supper to BILLIONS of Christians worldwide— that being to do this in remembrance of Our Saviour and Redeemer of the Sins of the World. A “play” directed by a French queer, no less, and no surprise floating on the fecal soaked Seine.

Why didn’t they try a diorama of the Archangel narrating verses to the ILLITERATE sheepherder and goat f’er Muhammad? . Why NOT that? Well an answer that’s easy— “luuuk I am giving a cigarette to a bA-bee- why? because I am French and I do not give a s==t!”
Laugh, and point made all in One! Paris is not Normandy.
Warning— his F- word laced language. The end” oh look the Germans are here— we LOVE you Americans..Now”.

NBC must be apoplectic about the number of viewers they have lost.

Oh right, like they didn’t realize it was so disrespectful to Catholics and Christians. Like they would never dream of disrespecting Islam, Mohamed.

So easy to apologize after the fact. They did it on purpose.

I think they should be more concerned with the living God they mocked. It would be more prudent of them to seek HIS forgiveness.

“We believe this ambition was achieved. If people have taken any offence we are really sorry.”

To paraphrase Fred Flintstone: "We're sorry you're stupid."

Me too back in the day when it was our true amateurs versus the state-supported full-time athletes from the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact countries. But with the demise of the Soviet Union and the open professionalization The Olympics are just not the same. Not to mention the corruption - $ - of the IOC being exposed. Is it’s just a TV production that falls very flat.

Dead on correct— super Socialist/Marxists need US money to even exist— hence-— flail away.

See post 69 for an incredibly well done commentary on the French as to “why” they would do this?

Certainly wouldn’t do it to their black tar heroin suppliers in the ME (the French Connection etc.)

" If people have taken any offence we are really sorry."

Ah, the classic "I don't see anything wrong with what I did, but apparently I need to say something" so-called apology.

I think back to Frank Shorter winning the marathon, Dick Fosbury, Edwin Moses, Dave Wottle. Heck back to Rafer Johnson and even Bob Matthias. The Olympics just don’t have that cachet anymore. But hey, 2028 In LA.
