Time to end the Olympics.

Put the Olympics in Greece. None of this stupid 'round-the-world who-can-subsidize-then-abandon-a-random-city selection bullcrap. Build a beautiful bunch of arenas and so on there.

Definitely get rid of any protests or solicitations or other. Athletes are there to represent their country. Period. Nothing more, nothing less.

Get rid of all the ESPN-8 crap. There's way too many random stupid things there now. If it's an event that even half the countries can't send a competitor to, it's a good place to start cutting this crap.

I'm sure I could come up with more but I just don't care much. Ha.

It’s really sad to see all the facilities that are abandoned after the Games are over.

I have to give credit to Atlanta for a doing a good job of repurposing their facilities after they hosted the Olympics.

They should trim it back to just all the events they had in the 1976 Olympic Games, that’s plenty.
