When you have company coming, you don't try to make your home presentable? Isn't it normal for everyone to present as good a image as possible? China is doing things that America or other host counties haven't?

Come on, this is China bashing time isn't it. Pick, pick pick. What America does best, run down and intimidate someone you fear might be better than we are.

I don't watch the olympics anymore summer or winter. There has been so many instances of just outright crap it has taken the fun out of watching it for me. Aren't all these athletes primarily competing against each other? But, no we make it country against country.

What cooked me was the speed skating brother and sister duo. The press hounded her until she feel apart. The brother it seemed thrived on the pressure. She was very bitter about this and I don't blame her. She asked why she had to compete for the U.S. and the press, why couldn't she just compete for herself. A good question

I really think this country is sick when it comes to winning.
