It's one thing for people that don't know the athletes to not go to the Olympics, but it really is a little bit fucked up to not allow the families of athletes in the buildings, which seems a lot like not letting the family of someone with the coronavirus in the hospital to visit. That doesn't seem like the way to treat people, and why should anybody that does treat people that way be trusted?
People want to be there for their family members to cheer them on even during hard times, and times that aren't fairweather days. The Olympics is no different than any other sports event in that sense, even if the scale is thought to be grander.

Some of these younger folks seem quicker to change the guard than people from earlier in their generation or generations before. Michael Phelps had longetivity to his Olympic runs. Being unselfish isn't a bad thing, a lot of these folks will be together as a team for years to come, but just like vets can learn from the rookies, where would the Olympics be without the vets?
Vets do more than just usher in the new during the Olympics, so hopefully appreciation for them isn't lost for something newer that seems more momentarily exciting.

Thank god they are over, people watching/playing sports will now have about 2 weeks of no major sporting events/competitions, and they will get to actually enjoy summer for being summer. For the people watching/playing the NBA Finals past mid July with the Olympics starting the same week, it really was getting silly. The NBA Finals ended over a month before that just a few years ago, and they never needed to go further than mid June. It was nice to have a full summer of no major sporting events/finals/playoffs, just casual regular season baseball games.
It didn't help the Olympics that they came right after the NBA Finals. People like to get a little summer in to enjoy it without thinking about what sporting event/competition is next, since that starts to get silly at a certain point. Not everybody wants a summer filled with competition after competition, it gets dull and silly at the same time.

Mexican Olympics-
If someone ever tells you that "you pulled off the Mexican Olympics";
Its another way of saying that you beat the Devil at his own game.
The Mexican Olympics is the most extreme sport of survival there is, it puts the gameshow "Survivor" to shame.
Starting out inside Mexico, the Mexican Olympics begin as soon as you cross the border into United States of America by any means necessary.
Crossing the border is not the hard part, it's staying inside America by avoiding detection is the hard part.
Strategies include gambling, obtaining fake ID's, and moving to a different address and possibly a different state every year to avoid getting shot or detected by I.C.E. and/or Border Patrol.
To win the Gold in the Mexican Olympics, please enlist in the military with a pseudo identification, fake identification or someone else's identification.
By serving in the military it is a great way to earn American citizenship,if caught, stay silent.
If you are suspected as a spy, it's not the end of the world, you can become "doubled" or a double agent. Always claim you are a persecuted minority in your home country.
Being classified as "White" sure does help alot in avoid detection and deportation. If so always claim as an "Albino" or "Al-Beano"if you speak any foreign language other than English.

Person 1-"You pulled off the Mexican Olympics!"
Person 2-"You been in this country for so long that we don't have any identification of you."
Person 3-" The guy even has the Medal Of Honor by giving enough information to kill Osama Bin Laden during his brief military service."
Person 4- "We know you are not speaking Spanish when you speak but it sure helps you being around Spanish Speakers and act like you having a conversation together, good job on learning English fast."
Person 5-"You actually deserve to be an American Citizen."
