Title: Re: Olympics ... anyone really care? Post by: Dunk on July 28, 2008, 04:28:03 PM I'm looking forward to the Olympics. I agree with birdymaker that the games have been tainted somewhat, but there is still a lot of drama involved.
In Canada, we REALLY look forward to the winter games. There's much more interest in those. Title: Re: Olympics ... anyone really care?
