I choose to blame CON for starting the trend of a bunch of uninvolved alliances making an announcements in regards to internal NPO issues.

Olympics. Rich in history and has a variety of sports. Probably should be in the water cooler

World Cup.

Most olympic events are pretty dull. And they get repeated a lot.

The world cup is great, you don't get the same passionate support at the olympics.

Only sport I like is Football (Not American), so that's why, really.

I don't watch either, but seeing how the world cup is mainly soccer, I was obligated to vote against it, hence why I voted for the olympics.

well, thats arguable - the olympic ideal also calls for the best to compete against the best, and if you say amateurs only then that's not gonna happen (in fact in the big sports you would be talking like 50th string before you get to non-pro's)

Oh, voted WC btw
