    I've been trying so hard to get excited about the olympics, but those crappy organises are making it really hard to like.

    I was planning on being a volunteer, but do i really want to be associated with something thats already shaping up to be an epic fail.

    What rubbish, I'm sure it will be a great Olympics. A dodgy logo and some odd looking mascots doesn't make an Olympics. I can't wait for it personally.

    >>> Lol I`d be surprised if the mascots were good, all the Olympics mascots suck (its a tradition)..
    And that logo is even worst..

    Their names are the only good thing about them. They're actually named after British towns which had their own games (eg the Wenlock Games) that inspired the modern Olympics.
    I'm glad there's a reason for the names, because I think they're terrible names on their own. They sound like evil Disney characters.

    I like the mascot design, though, personally. *shrug* I think they're neat.
