Olympic athletes are so much nicer than Professional (NBA,NFL, MLB, etc.) I made a video to honor all there achievements go to  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FAL3xcrK1Q4&feature=user  to honor all of our athletes. What are your views about olympic athletes? I think they are all awesome.

Here it is for those of you who are to lazy.

"overrated."
Thx. How can they be overated??? They all work the asses off for four years, and then some (Hamm Brothers) don't even get to compete. You have to admire their determination.

I'm not belittling them. They are possibly the greatest sportspeople alive.
But they're still just sportspeople. Sometimes it seems like people forget that.

I know, but they don't make much money (excluding Michael Phelps). They are has happy as can be, and work as hard as they can to honor the country.

Some people are just cynical...if anyone can honestly say that a guy like clay, who won the decathlon or a guy like phelps or bolt who are almost inhuman are overrated then he or she is sadly mistaken.

Enjoy your opinion.
Sure, they're nearly inhumanly fast/strong/whatever, but, aside from prestige, what do they bring home?
And quite frankly, prestige doesnt put food on the table.

Well its not just my opionion...the guy who wins the decathlon ( 10 different events) is considered the greatest athlete in the world
 
List of events for the decathlon...I believe they gotta do all of this in like 2 days. Most of us would probably kneel over and give up after the first couple.
100 m



Long Jump



Shot Put



High Jump



400 m



110 m Hurdles



Discus Throw



Pole Vault



Javelin Throw



1500 m




Moving on to Bolt...he ran about a 9.69 in the 100 m dash, probably would have been another .1-.15 second faster if he didn't start showboating at the 70meter line. An NFL athlete like Reggie bush who gets paid like 50million bucks does runs a 40yard dash in like 4.3 seconds..bolt can run that in under 3.8 seconds. Bolt is light years ahead of what the top paid athletes can do in the NFL.

Phelps won 8 golds in the Olympics....he swam against the best the WORLD could put up and he beat them all...no athlete in any sport other than the olympics could say that.

Also, about 28million in America care about the olympics, about 2 billion people in the world have seen the olympics. Much much much more than anything that goes on in the America. What the athletes bring home is Prestige and gold..and the knowledge that American Athletes are the best in that particular field. The olympics are the pinnacle of sports, have been for about a century and I am sure it will remain so for the foreseeable future.

  1. They increase morale back home and bring honor to our nation.
  2. They get TONS of sponsorships. Michael Phelps will be set for the rest of his life.

In that I agree with you. And in that respect, it's important, or at least interesting, to see how the host country plays things out.

all of them are great athletes. I feel bad for the womens gymnastic team because they were cheated out of the medals by 14 year-olds.

Yeah we were definitely cheated out of medals. Nastia Liukin should really have 4 gold medals, and Shawn Johnson should have 3. Well that's what happens when you go up against a Communist Dictatorshit****.....
