I think it's a really nice accolade for Glasgow :) Sports stuff or no :)

For most my life (when i used to watch TV), the Olympic Games and the Commonwealth Games were nothing more to me than the time when TV was really boring, and I'd keep asking "how much longer until its finished". Much like sundays mornings when it was the religious shows.

Thankfully now days with Internet, DVDs and such, it's no longer an issue and those sport fans can watch everyone else run about without it bugging me.
