I've never understood why anybody would be fascinated by the fact that
some people can run faster than others, jump higher, or hit a ball with
more accuracy.


You mean a desire to be the best

watching the best compete to see who is the best of the best?

People need heroes

Why they should choose corporate sponsors who represent the total
opposite of the olympic ideal, why half the roads in london should
close, why the only beer allowed on site isn't even british etc

Thats where I have a problem
