   This one is to my fellow members of my half of the species. I've been following the Olympics with a great deal of interest. I watch them on the Canadian channel CBC, where "MR. BIG" (in his mind, anyway) is Brian Williams. He anchors the broadcasts, and frequently subjects viewers to expressions of his opinions on whatever is transpiring. Supposedly, his "youthful enthusiasm" endears him to all. Nope, that just isn't the case.Yesterday, we were shown a little of the women's hammer throw. The competitors were strong women who obviously had trained every bit as much as anyone else, for their event. When the camera came to Mr. Big-Ego, he began to tell the audience that the summer games were "getting too big" and that the IOC had said they needed to cut out some of the games. Instead, they keep adding, says he, and then he drops his little pea-brain bombshell. "I have to question the relevancy of the women's hammer throw.", says he. Are you trying to tell us that the women's event should be eliminated while the men's is retained, Brian? If so, exactly which criteria did you use to reach this little decision of yours? You know what, Brian? I have to question the relevancy of YOU!

I must say Mommy, I was there watching it with you and I am as enraged as you are about this comment. I feel that you have put it succinctly and so I will only add: Good one Ebb!
