Then I'm assuming that you also believe that the USA should be banned as well, correct? The things that have happened so far in these Olympics can't be much worse than having spectators killed, the bribery involved in not only obtaining the Salt Lake Olympics, but also during the judging of the mixed pairs figure skating. There's also the absolutely lopsided refereeing by the American referee in the 2002 Women's Gold Medal game.
To me, the death of spectators and the acceptance of bribes is just as bad as the death of a participant in a dangerous sport and poor racing conditions........but then again, you've been watching the Olympics "since they started" (over 2700 years ago), so who am I to judge? I mean, I've only been watching since 1998.
