I highly suggest Dan Wetzel's column on Usain Bolt and the IOC, link here. Best short sports piece I've read in a long time. Any article that contains the phrase "slap around like rag dolls" is bound to be readable.
"All the powerful nations — including the United States — have carte blanche at the Games. They can pout and preen, cheat, throw bean balls, file wild complaints, break promises that got them a host bid, whatever they want. They can take turns slapping Rogge and his cronies around like rag dolls as long as the dinner with a good wine list gets paid. .."
