We know nothing about the Lithuanian who wins the biathalon because he doesn't speak English and has no life of hardship to overcome, but we DO know about the American who finishes 44th because he lost his mum at age 7 and shows the skill of weeping on cue.
Have you ever been in a sport?? Worked out at all???
I have and believe me it is an experience I loved.
I watch for the sports, the media want to bring us the story behind the story, that is fine with me. BUT KEEP GIVING ME THE OLYMPICS AND SPORTS!!!
I do not mind if they want to tell me the person's history, but what ticks me off is how they do not show ALL the events and ALL the competitors. If they spent less time on the commie announcers of the events like Tom Brokaw etc. and MORE on the events and even YESSS the struggle to get to the point of competition that is what I care about.
YOU think bleudevil I already do! I iwant it all, the events, the sports, the stories of the competitiors.....and kick off the stupid commie idiots that are self absorbed like announcers of wanting their own mug on the screen. It is NOT about the media it is about those competiting and the actual competitions !
