HeyaRoope! Boxing, huh, figures, always leading with yer head, eh? **BG**

marty, good question, but, for me at least, there would be no attraction is they went all pro, which is essentially what they are now. I hate sports on tv, but I've always, up until the past few years, liked to watch some of the Olympics. Also, why should pros be subsidised by the citizens of their countries through all of the expense it takes to put the Olympics on.

Deckman, you are so right, they are a number one target and I think it is wrong to ask 10,000 security personnel, plus the military people, etc. to put their lives on the line for sports.

Jon, good suggestion, but I am not optimistic, at least for the average American.:-(

thanks,
