Interesting Quote: IOC member Dick Pound


"Nobody has got anything else to write about and for some reason as they have sort of moved away from the anti-gay stuff — I think it’s not drawing the kind of attention that they wanted. In Malaysia, you can be put to death. In Nigeria, you can be put in jail for God knows how long. So it’s a target of convenience with respect to Russia, not that I approve of the law, but putting it on a scale of 1-10 of odious laws, it’s not way up there near 10. So whose ox is getting gored here?”
