I only skimmed a bit of the article... I will say that I WILL feel sorry for would-be Olympic athletes who actually need the financial help and may not get it; but as for the already-overpaid pros who will miss getting an extra million or two (or many more), Bwahahahahahaha! Yeah, 'I feel your pain', ya'll...

1. I'm sure the Darth Cheney Foundation for Torture will endorse
and surely Michael Vick will be the hands down choice...Plus, he'll have the Fur Industry as well as that company that makes expensive Apres Ski boots from dogs. So, thank heavens, all you Vick fans. He'll come through, ok.... I know how worried you've been.

2.  The sword of Damocles is hanging over my head
And I've got the feeling someone's gonna be cutting the thread
Oh, woe is me, my life is a misery
Oh, can't you see that I'm at the start of a pretty big downer?
