Cashing In.


"Olympic cycling hero Chris Hoy last night voiced his dismay at attempts by politicians to "cash in" on his success in Beijing. Shortly after becoming the first Briton in a century to win three gold medals at a single Games, Hoy became embroiled in a debate over the feasibility of a Scottish Olympic team. Edinburgh-born Hoy felt controversy was timed to capitalise on his achievements."

Naw. Never. Chris Hoy is correct, but his comments come straight out of the school of "stating the obvious." Sad, but true. Perhaps he should turn the tables and become a politician? He couldn't do much worse than most of the ones we currently have.
