Back to the Other One...

Breaking Down the Toon:

I am an American Olympic Viewer, I cheer for the American teams in all the games (even the ones I don't care much about) and I like watching the "X-Games" crossover sports (snowboarding, the Aerial Skiing Events, etc).

I like watching the commercials, I like seeing the shirts and uniform stuffs that will be available shortly in one form or another, that I will be able to buy at the American staple of economic goodness, WALMART.   I like spending my American-made dollars at American stores when shopping.  I like wearing my red-white-and-blue tie with one of my favorite outfits that I get great compliments on. 

I enjoy hearing commentary about American Politics, (again, even the ones I don't care much about) because I know that I live in America:  A place where we can talk about things like the governmental politics.

I don't like it when people tell me what I will think about.  I don't like it when I'm told that you "should" be _________, and I'm not, because I "don't care much about it." 

But guess what:  I'm American. 

Let me wave a flag, let me "like" to watch the stories of athletes that win GOLD while competing for America and puh-leese stop telling me that Olympic Athletes are "not as good as the professional athletes".

If PATRIOTISM is one of the things remembered most during this most recent Winter Olympics, what's wrong with that?

It's that or remember things like "4 gold medals in pairs figureskating", bitching, whining "Russian Judges lamenting some of the most inane crap in Olympic History," or the total loss of focus on the one thing that makes the sport what it is:  Sportsmanship.
