It is now 2012, and that means this summer we will be treated to the Olympic games. I, for one, am excited! The Olympics- both summer and winter- are so much fun. Plus when all the different sports are televised- well, that beats ninety percent of what’s usually available on daytime (and primetime!) television!! There are so many sports represented that you can almost always find something that entertains you.
Of course, we are only treated to the Olympics for a few weeks every couple of years. It would be great if we could see it more often, but there just aren’t enough athletes for that. It’s hard enough to break into the elite level of any sport, and once you’re an elite athlete, you have to train consistently. There’s also just not enough money in sport marketing to support a constant sports festival.
I suppose if I had cable television, I *could* watch sports channels all the time. But I am just too cheap to pay for television!!
