Funny enough, we just had a discussion like this last week. In order to participate in the Olympics, you can never have been paid for whatever exercise you are wanting to compete in… they consider any payment for the sport as making you a “professional”. I think they made an exception for basketball a while back, but I don’t recall any other exceptions off the top of my head.

It says there were 2 comments here and yet I only see catfeet’s comment. How can anyone possibly be flagged for making a comment on “One Big Happy”?

Besides, just because you’re a professional in any area doesn’t make you automatically better than any amateur (not paid). ;-)

You do realize that “amateur” means “doing something purely for the love of it”.
