The emblem of the Olympic Games is composed of 5 interlocking, colored (blue, yellow, black, green, and red) rings on a white field. It was designed in 1913 by Baron Pierre de Coubertin, the founder of the modern Olympic Games. The rings signify passion, faith, victory, sportsmanship, and work ethic ("ethics" is not mentioned, except as "sportsmanship," but is expected). Each night during the Olympics a summary of the day's events is presented on television and details provided in newspapers, on radio, and on the web. What we are told about are the highlights, that is, the events that the media feel are important and will be watched by large audiences. Fencing, badminton, and handball usually are not mentioned here, unless one of the competitors falls, plays poorly, or is shown to be a person of the sex opposite of that we all assumed her (rare) or him (very rare) to be, although the athletes competing in those events have practiced most of their lives to perfect their skills. This seems rather inane. Why is the 100-m dash of greater interest than taekwondo? I don't know, but it is. Not many people are interested in watching weight-lifting and the participants in those events perform before audiences comprising their relatives, friends, and biased judges, as well as those whose IQs are so low they could not figure out how to obtain tickets to the basketball competition
