It's still the Olympics. They still get medals just like the Summer. Maybe we can ask some people that ski, play ice hockey and luge if they think that Winter Olympic Competitors should be taken seriously.

And I'm sure our Canadian friends are already excited about Vancouver in 2010.

You're saying it asinine to think that Dubai could build a lot in a matter of a few years?
