Things that can suck it...
Ok, really, but do we really need all of the sob stories for the Olympic commentary.
How many times can I hear about a girl who struggled through poverty only to have her house burn down and kill her cats and leave her homeless eating frozen potatoes and dirt and then her last remaining parent dies in a horrible freak avalanche and she is taken in by a kind and loving family that helps her use gymnastics as a way to overcome life's obstacles and her scarred past and as a tribute to her parents who could not live to see the day that she won the gold.
What happens when she doesn't win the gold?
What then, huh?
Back to the streets for you, wench.
