Sagemindsays...The rule is one of several strict guidelines set by organisers to protect the exclusivity rights of sponsors such as Coca-Cola, Visa and McDonald’s and prevents ambush stunts from rival non-sponsors. It means that athletes are prevented from endorsing their individual sponsors throughout the event.
Athletes found in breach of the laws could be fined and disqualified from the Games, although this has never happened.

Seems like the UN is bigger than the IOC. Couldn't we just tell them "Fuck you we're not putting up with your shit!." I mean it's not like they have an army or anything, and I'm really sick of corporations ruling everyone.
I'm also sick of the Olympics not being about Amateurs anymore...it should be 100% non-professionals!
