Something for licence fee payers to consider

Why have the BBC given up showing sport in favour of showing people who used to do sport talking about sport? There are DOZENS of Olympic events going on simultaneously and yet every time I turn on the TV I see two ex-athletes talking to Clare Balding, normally about something that has nothing to do with sport.
This event only happens for two weeks once every four years, can we PLEASE have a chance to gorge ourselves on the festivities instead of watching has-beens and also-rans in conversation with overpaid presenters on a South American jolly?
