According to a story in People magazine, American cyclist Tejay
van Garderen has withdrawn his name from Olympic consideration due to
concerns about the potential effects the virus could have on his
pregnant wife. Bravo for him. I'm just surprised that NBC, who has
the exclusive rights to broadcast the games, didn't try and opt for
Venezuela! Such a location would not only have the added drama
of a out of control pathogen but also could be viewed against the
back drop of a country teetering on the edge of civil war! Well, perhaps in another four
years...
