    Cutting staff but not budgets for sports.
    Is Bob Condron in charge of media relations there now?

    They're not going to be able to be such hard-asses about credentialing anymore, eh? The U.S. media contingent for Sochi 2014 will be about large as it is for a U.S. World Cup qualifier in Guatemala.

    How about we just eliminate the USOC entirely?

    One thing not being cut: the enormous subsidy Colorado Springs is giving USOC for its new downtown headquarters. I think this is ironic: the city is having to slash its parks budget, including cutting youth sports programs, while it lavishes USOC with dough.

    Not if you consider that the USOC are a bunch of pigs who learned their swinish trade from the biggest pigs in the sporting world, the IOC.

    What's wrong with the USOC complex east of downtown?

    You never covered international soccer, I assume?
