Is the Superbowl the Olympics? no. but the winter olympics are Olympics The IOC certainly would like to have a 2nd Olympics and tell everyone they're real Olympics, but that doesn't mean they are. Don't recall ever reading about the ancient Greeks ever feeling a need to make another set of games to make winter sports feel important. thats cause the greeks never saw snow unless they climbed a mountain which they were scared to do cause of the gods. just cause it didn't happen in ancient times doesn't mean it's not valid. the winter games were invented decades ago and they were an instant hit. not once has the world missed a winter games from happening. if it wasn't that great, it wouldn't have caught on. and winter culture is very important in many countries. <cite>Bagamak posted [p:895844676] in I just saw...
