The athletes are the ones who put in all the effort to get there, and they should be able to perform in the way they see best.
Then they would just represent the corporations that support them instead..and frankly it's practically the McDonald's and Coca-Cola Olympics as it is..If that happens I wouldn't support it.

But this is a discussion for the 'other' thread.
