There's so many things wrong with that sentence....being a sports scientist i should launch into a CookieRevised style essay reply, but i'm simply gonna say that there's been political boycotts of the olympics virtually every games since the 1950s
and as for it being an unbiased platform, there's been cheating in numerous forms (drugs, bribrery, equipment tampering) since the olympics began
i can only hope that your reply was laced with huge quantities of sarcasm that are undetectable over the internet if not.....then *sigh*
