Yes, I am aware of that - because of your posts, actually. Doesn't make it look less pathetic though.

It would be utterly sensless to waste money like that for an event that nobody cares about, to be honest... This is the main reason why YOG isn’t up to the quality of an Olympic event yet, and it’s a mindset I don’t understand. The OBS has turned a profit for years. The whole point of that organization is to broadcast the Olympics. So broadcast the Olympics for heaven’s sake! “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

For all I care they give up every commentator and spend the money they save that way on, you know, showing sports.

Both of these would be completely fine with me. I know of a rather talented modern pentathlon/curling commentator. Maybe I should slip his CV their way... “Sport has the power to change the world.
