Over 25 years ago, I was between jobs and in a new home to me. ABC was covering the Olympics and during the daytime, they showed 15 minutes of Olympic coverage, 15 minutes of the daytime schedule (soaps). Well darned if I didn't get hooked on those darned soaps for a while! Even though I don't watch them any more, I felt sad when ABC cancelled 2 out of 3 this past year. I do not feel that the Olympics are an even playing field since some countries financially support their athletes so that we now have professionals (basketball, tennis) representing the U. S. It is not an level playing field. By the way, that home had a wonderful sewing studio --- which I converted into an office. Young and foolish!
