NOT CELEBRATE?
My ass. How dare the Olympic Committee suggest the American and English athletes not run around after one of their many wins and celebrate by wrapping themselves in the stars and stripes or the Union Jack. "It might offend other countries who may already have strained views of us". Bullshit. After our athletes win, they should grab Old Glory or the Jack and shove it in their faces chanting USA, USA, USA or England, England, England. France isn't being asked not to celebrate. Germany's not being asked to celebrate. Canada, Australia or Japan aren't being asked not to celebrate. Only our two countries. Can someone say "discrimination" or "jealousy"? They just don't want to have to listen to our national anthems over and over and over again. And I'll guarantee you this. The mass majority of the people in the stadium will boo till their horse when the Star Spangled Banner is played. Right then our athletes should collectively raise their right arms and flip them off. Or in England's case, give them the 'ol two finger salute. But then we'd just be criticized for "unsportsman like conduct". Oh well.
