15. Ever since they allowed

Pros into the Olympics my interest has dwindled. Now it appears if you get caught cheating they will either punish the other competitors (by denying them their ceremony and mailing their medals) or if you are the host team just change the rules mid-competition.

I am not a football fan so only saw four plays while near a TV tuned to the game. In two of the four plays I saw blatant penalties that were not called. At least pro wrestling has the decency to have their refs stop and tie their shoe or ogle the eye candy at ringside so they have an excuse to not see cheating.
