Maybe this is the year we realize the Olympics no longer have a real purpose.  Each city that hosts the games have a terrible time just breaking even financially, especially in years where air travel is difficult: post 911, pandemic restrictions, high fuel prices (thanks, Biden!), etc.

Maybe they can just wrap it in a "Climate Change" message and eliminate all those unnecessary greenhouse gas emissions?   :geekdanc:
