Growing up, the Olympics were always a big deal. It was an opportunity to see the best ATHLETES from around the world. It seems like since the 1980s the integrity and interest in the Olympics has waned. However the introduction of breakdancing as a "sport" will no doubt increase interest and viewership. Too funny. We had better see a 2-step event in the future!

I look at the sports that interest me and flip the channel on what does not......starting with ice skating and ribbon dancing gymnasts. I'm sure the Greeks a few thousand years ago would not recognize the games they started. Time marches on as Bruce Jenner is now Kaitlyn......who would thunk it in 1976?[emoji3061]

Have become? That spectacle has been a joke for decades now. What used to be a truly amatuer competition has become a very professional competition. Add in all the politics involved and I lost interest. What was it about 10 years ago they decide softball would no longer be included in the Olympics but Break Dancing is. Give me a break(pun, lol).
