Tell you what, no offense but that reminds me of the one thing I hate the worst about the Olympics: being constantly bombarded by a medal tally by country by the TV commentators.
Talk about being contrary to the Olympic spirit!
No offense taken,being originally from the U.K I never had to listen to a very long medal tally.More a case of blink and it's gone.
I do remember one particularly fine olympics many, many moons ago, where the whole of my all girls convent school developed a collective, massive crush on Mark Spitz, the swimmer.His medal tally which I think was 7 was even mentioned at our end of year mass !!!!!
Can you believe that.All those raging hormones in the students, and years of unleashed hormones in the nuns, heady days !!!!
It brings a smile to my face even all these years on.He was American I believe.
