Chinese police Tuesday apologised for roughing up two Japanese journalists as Beijing's Olympic commitment to allow foreign media freedom came under scrutiny three days before the Games opened.

This could also turn out to be entertaining!

This could end up being a bigger joke than those two idiots running for Prez.:p :rotfl:

I like it. Finally an Olympic Games that has absolutely nothing to do with sports.

Now, what will happen when the North Korean Olympics come...? :hmm:

Seriously! I like playing sports, can't stand watching them on TV. Except maybe hockey. This year is fun because there's a big issue overshadowing the games.

My thoughts exactly. Can't stand watching sports, but sign me up to play - no problem! Loved soccer. Still do but haven't found anyone that still plays it.
