skydiver30960 0 #2 September 16, 2008 I totally understand the logistical advantage of having the Paralympics the same year as the Olympics, and in the same venue. But once the Olympics are over, everybody just sorta sighs, says "thank GOD it's over for another four years" and tunes out. I wonder if the Paralympics wouldn't get more interest if it was in an Olympic off-year... Elvisio "more TV coverage" Rodriguez Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
