Chinese athletes not attractive enough
Hot on the heels of the scandals surrounding the Olympics comes a fresh allegation. Not content with faking the fireworks display, planting cheering members in the audience, and replacing singers the Chinese authorities have taken to replacing the appearance of its competing team.
Using advanced computer trickery a scan of a pre-designated 'attractive' Chinese person is superimposed over that of the athlete in question prior to broadcast. When confronted with this allegation at a press conference an official issued the following statement:
"China is the best country in the world", he stated. "As such it produces the best sports people in the world. This fact must be made clear to the decadent Western nations who favour only superficial visual appearance over talent."
When asked if this 'enhancement' affected only those who won their events, the official seemed bemused.
"As befitting the best country in the world with the best political system in the world China has won every single event in which it has competed", he then added "At least that is what I have seen on the TV".
This satirical bit of fun brought to you by me ;-)

The Daily Mash had their own take -
TERRIBLE FATE AWAITS
CHINESE BRONZE MEDALLISTS
"There were no Chinese bronze medallists, you are mistaken," says sinister government spokesman.
OTOH as mentioned by Mock The Week, the pressure's off for the opening ceremony for the 2012 London Olympics. May I suggest we have the Loch Ness Monster somersaulting through burning hoops on the Thames with a climatic finale of the Big Ben tower taking off and exploding in a pyrotechnic display. Get Pixar on the phone now Lord Coe.
