I read an interesting post today in Randy Starkman's Olympic blog, which highlights just one more reason why I will never support the scam that is the Olympic games. As you are probably aware the Olympics makes huge money in sponsorship deals, deals which in my opinion are, pardon my french; bullshit.
For example: McDonalds is the "Official Restaurant"! Give me a break. Yeah, I know you love the sappy, feel good commercials, but do you really think these elite "amateur" (which brings me to another item in the Olympic scam, but that's for another day) athletes eat at McDonalds? If you do, I've got some oceanfront property in Arizona to sell you.
So the point Randy is trying to make is this: Why should CTV "storytellers" be selected to carry the torch before, say children or real amateur athletes. I hope the people at CTV will rethink this disgusting and shameful scam.
