The Olympics Are Over.....And The Discussion Starts

So the 2008 Beijing Olympics are over and the discussions about money, politics and doping start. Read what Thomas Bach, one of the four IOC vice presidents, called the two grand delusions in sports:
1. Sports is not about money.
2. Sports is not about politics. (His comments are about half way down the page.)
Then read the third grand delusion: That top athletes are all clean and that world records are simply the products of a healthy mind in a healthy body. However, Bach states that the doping testing finds very few persons using performance enhancing substances. Bach is a strong potential candidate to succeed Jacques Rogge as IOC president.
