It's not a good thing when a certain sport in your country is dictated by a single commercial organization that is dictated by a single man in charge.
2020 Olympic Trials is not being held in Eugene, it's being put on by Nike. 1984 came about 36 years late, but clearly Orwell nailed it with his little gem of a story.
The sport would have died without Nike.
So, if that is the case, it is great that this sport gave birth to the world's biggest sporting company, and that that company - is giving back in a big way.
It can only HELP the sport to have a premiere, PREMIERE, knock your socks off venue to show off the sport.
