It urks me to no end to hear the fans at the olympics boo the American atheletes. These people have dedicated their lives to their chosen sports. The atheletes have nothing to do with olympic judging or political policies of the USA. What makes some loser, who only has dedicated his life to spanking his monkey, decide that he is better? I personally feel bad for any athelete there that goes home with no medal reguardless of their country. I often find myself pulling for the Greek atheletes because their home country is where the competition is taking place. I could only imagine the emotion that would go with an accomplishment such as that.
Keep in mind that people as a whole no matter color nor creed are stupid, petty, selfish and entirely worthless. Most important lesson in life. The earlier one learns it the better off they'll be.
