Just enjoy the events you like and as you probably have done - ignore the ones you don't enjoy.
It's entertainment after all, it's free, these athletes are great to watch and.

Just as an aside the Philippines gold metal winner got:
$225,000 in cash
A Home and a condo
Free ramen for life
Free buffets for life from a Chinese restaurant chain.

And hold your breath....

Free colonoscopies and gastro exams for life.

When they open a Villages in the Philippines I'll be the first to sign up!
Archery certainly requires skill and practice. Does anyone think that William Tell would have shot the apple without practice?
