Stitchers of the World, Unite!

I can't remain silent on this topic...all stitchers should be up in arms about this! Frankly, all Americans should be up in arms about this...

I lost interest in the Olympics quite a long time ago when it became clear that it's all about the $$$$ and not about sports.

I have to laugh...when I first glanced at your title I read it as "Stitchers of the World, Untie!" (Do I need new bifocals or do I have dyslexia? LOL)

As for the topic at hand...I couldn't agree more! I will be knitting while the Olympics are on, but I will be doing it while I watch a good movie on NetFlix!

I have always loved the Olympics and I understand they need revenue to pay for the athletes travel etc....but I don't understand paying for the flags....who gets the money? I'm not liking this either.
