Olympic by Edward Nyerick I was somewhat shocked and confused to hear that the Carter Administration has recently threatened to pull the United States out of the 1980 Summer Olympic Games in Moscow, Russia. What have the Olympic Games become? Am I wrong to suggest that the Olympic Games were originally devised to bring about peaceful competition of athletes from all over the world? Why have the Olympic Games become an antithesis of their primary goal? Is the President using the Olympics as some sort of bargaining chip or retaliatory measure against the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan? Should the United States set an ever impressing and reprimanding void in the Summer Olympics? Should we urge other nations to follow the United States and withdraw completely from the games? Why must athletes give up what might have been a rewarding experience in a lifetime of preparation because of politics which happen to go hand in hand with peaceful athletic competition? Perhaps the Summer Olympics should be held in another country besides the Soviet Union. Perhaps the games should be scrapped altogether. I do not hive answers to my questions, but if you do I would be glad to hear them.
