The 30th Modern Olympics Are Here! So Why Am I Not Caring…

It’s not because I don’t want the USA to win and do well. Of course I do. Maybe I’m just getting older, but the Olympics used to be more fun when there was a real bad guy. Remember when the Olympics were like WWE wrestling? There was a good guy (Hulk Hogan) and a bad guy (Andre the Giant, god rest his soul) and then there were the bad guys who became good guys (Randy ‘Macho Man’ Savage’ god rest HIS soul).
USA, Russia, Germany. Same thing.

Now the North Koreans are bad (sorry Dave Kim

), and Iraq isn’t super evil anymore (they actually owe use for saving them) but it just isn’t the same. We might not will all the medals, but when we win alot of them, we beat countries like Argentina and Norway…and a bunch of other countries I have never heard of in the Opening Parade. (Where is Saint Kitts and Nevis or Gabon anyway?) Maybe I would feel different if I could win a Quarter Pounder with Cheese when the US wins gold in fencing. It’s just not the same.

Who knows, maybe I will feel different after we win a few medals. Or I see Mr Bean more. When Bob Costas interviews him, that’s when the Olympics will have Jumped the Shark. Maybe Waterskiing should be an Olympic sport…hmmm…
