Dude, I hear what you are saying...but if they were only about sports we wouldn't have Coca-Cola, VISA, McDonalds pushing their agenda via the olympics.

The Olympics aren't just about sports, and the saturation of corporate messages within the games is an example of that.

If they WERE pure and only about the sports I would agree with you
