2004, because it's just perfect. The only other option (apart from 1936) of which I didn't think it was so insanely boring and filled with a complete lack of inspiration was 2016.

 

Share the spirit, one dream and inspire a celebration that's united by emotion. It could so easily be the motto for every freaking sports event ever. Also for every school trip or every random, generic event with a few people where organizers want to make it seem like they will change the world. Which they won't. At all.

I would add that just because something is “corny” “cheesey” or “simple” doesn’t mean it’s not inspired. The Paris 2024 logo is highly simplistic, but’s there’s a lot of thought and inspiration that went into it.

 

I’m really enjoying this topic of conversation, so I’ll probably be publishing a survey/blog about it on Totallympics Media this week.

I have to choose between 1992 and 2004, but I think 2 004 is too Greek-exclusive. So yeah Amigos para siempre
