Who gives a shit about you not giving a shit? I have more meta questions if you'd like. :)

I don't give a shit about anyone not giving a shit about the Winter Olympics. I am just saying I don't give a shit either. Snowboarding events were the only Winter Olympics events that I even remotely gave a shit about, and even then it was giving too much shit about it. PC

If you sit back and contemplatze your confusion, you might understand that this is exactly the same feeling we old fart europeans have when people talk about cricket.

Cricket is not so popular in Scotland. We mostly view it as a quaint English sport. ColinMackay.net Scottish Developers are looking for speakers for user group sessions over the next few months. Do you want to know more?

hosting a olympics or any other events like worldcups, etc. brings in lot of tourists money, generates employments, tax money and host of other things. so lot of ppl gives shit to olympics.

What's snow got to do with the Olympics? Or are we talking about the Winter Olympics or something like that here? If so, then man, I gotta read the newspaper more I guess! :~ Regards, Nish

That's what the organizers would like you to think. Being from British Columbia, Canada, I've read up a lot on this (we're hosting the 2010 Winter Olympics). I can't find a single Olympics that has actually generated a profit. In fact, most of them are huge money losers. Here's[^] just one of money takes on the topic. Cheers, Drew.

This is BS. If you say that for the olympics, you can say that for everything. OK, let's turn everything off until we have fixed every problem in the world. No party anymore (why be happy because others are suffering), no sports, no arts (yes, art is expensive), no cinema (yes, making a movie is expensive), etc... We cannot stop living because others are in the mood, that's life. I spend money, I help local associations when I can, I vote for the people that are wanting to change things, and that's what most of us do. I love olympics, I am a great sports fan, I particularly love biathlon, ice-hockey, I love the olympics atmosphere, I find it awesome to see the best athlets in the world competiting two weeks long, it is simply great. So read my advice : dismiss your internet connection, and give the money you spend in it every month to cancer research, you'll make both the medical research and us happy. ~RaGE();

5 for your post off topic: Since I don't see French who love hockey everyday, does Cristobal Huet get some media coverage in France?
