Davy51 Posted August 24, 2016 Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 £4.1 million / medal has been mentioned in one news report on the Olympics .Is it anymore justified to throw so much money at the British Olympic team than it is to vilify the Russians as a team of drug cheats, especially when £millions could have been used elsewhere. With sponsorship some of these competitors will finish up fabulously wealthy in what is supposed to be amateur sport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davy51 Posted August 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 Exactly,& even sports that shouldn't be in the Olympics are being included. Tennis, golf ,football & the already wealthy professionals who play these sports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
