Worst Olympics Ever?

Every time I read the paper, it poses the question, is the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics the worst Olympics ever? This is based on an ice paver breaking down, a lack of snow on one of the courses, and long lineups. The death of the Georgian luger before the opening come in a distant fifth in their list. Even if death, he loses the gold. If Vancouver is the worst Olympics on record, which Olympics are they comparing it to? Are they forgetting Munich, when a group of terrorist murdered eleven athletes? Or the Berlin Olympics, hosted by none other than ADOLF HITLER? What about the bombing at the Atlanta Olympics? What about when the Montreal Olympic Stadium collapsed? What about the ancient Grecian Olympics, when female athletes were executed for infiltrating the Games disguised as men? I personally think the Nazi Olympics takes the cake, although seeing the expression on Hitler’s face when Jessie Owens won the gold makes it all worth while. It was like Captain America #1 where Cap punches Hitler in the face, times a million.
