My interest in the Olympics is marginal. But I am curious whether people think the judges are often corrupt.  Two examples in the news of odd judging include the apparently perfect gymnast and the falling boxing match. I don't know how these things are scored, but those in the know appear astounded. And in such an international events with such a strong sense of patriotism and high stakes...how could they find many judges who would be impartial and unbribed?
