Senior Olympic official has doubts about Games
LONDON — For the first time, a senior Olympic official questioned yesterday whether the Winter Games should go ahead in Salt Lake City while the United States was at war in Afghanistan.
The Associated Press
But the International Olympic Committee reiterated that the games would go on as planned in February, saying that only "World War III" could lead to a possible change.
Gerhard Heiberg, a respected IOC member from Norway, became the first IOC official to suggest publicly that the games might not take place in the crisis stemming from the Sept. 11 terror attacks in the United States.
"A country at war can't organize the Olympic Games," Heiberg was quoted as saying in the Norwegian evening paper Aftenposten.
Heinberg's words carry significant weight. He was the organizer of the 1994 Winter Olympics in Lillehammer, considered the best Winter Games in history, and serves on the IOC oversight commission for the Salt Lake Games.
Aftenposten quoted Heiberg as saying that the commission, which meets next week in Salt Lake, was expected to discuss if U.S. military action in Afghanistan was "an armed conflict, a military operation, a strike
against terrorism or a war."
Attempts to reach Heiberg were unsuccessful. Calls to his home, office and mobile phone went unanswered.
IOC president Jacques Rogge and Salt Lake organizing chief Mitt Romney have repeatedly insisted the games would go ahead, saying beefed-up security measures would ensure the safety of athletes and spectators.
"President Rogge has made it abundantly clear the games will go on. To do otherwise would be giving into terrorism," Romney said yesterday in a statement. "The games are needed now more than ever. The IOC executive board has voted unanimously on this decision. We have our marching orders from the IOC and are moving forward to stage great games in February."
Salt Lake Organizing Committee Chairman Robert Garff said the games "could be one of the safest places on earth" with protection by 7,000 federal, state and military personnel.
"The games have only been canceled during world wars and this is a long way from a world war," Garff said. "This is about terrorists who are isolated and scattered."
IOC Director General Francois Carrard said yesterday he had seen reports of Heiberg's remarks
and tried unsuccessfully to reach him by phone for a clarification.
But Carrard stressed there was no provision in the Olympic Charter, the IOC's official rule book, that said the games could not be held in a country which was at war.
Carrard said he believed Heiberg might have been referring to terms of the host city contract, a document signed by the IOC with every Olympic host city.
"In the host city contract, we always have a clause that provides if there is a war in the country, we have the right to terminate (the games) if we feel it appropriate," he said. "It would be our call. This is not at all the situation that presently exists."
that press, notify, Rogge, accompanied by Carrard, toured the United States this month and came away further convinced that the games would and should take place.
But, for the first time, the IOC identified a scenario which could cause the games to be called off.
"The only situation would be outside circumstances such as World War III, preventing traveling throughout the world, making it impossible for the delegations to come." Carrard said. "In that case, we would see what could or could not be done. We are not stupid, of course. But we cannot speculate or make assumptions."
Colts cramming for short week
The Associated Press
INDIANAPOLIS — Jim Mora's week began early—and ended with his car spending Monday night in the Indianapolis Colts parking lot.
Mora's coaching staff wasn't far behind him.
There were meetings till 11:30 p.m. Monday and more work after that.
At 7 a.m. yesterday, the coaches were back at work, preparing for the precious few hours of actual practice time before facing Kansas City.
Welcome to preparation for a Thursday night game.
"You've just got to bunch everything into fewer days," Mora said. "So that means longer hours."
For coaches, the changes mean more meetings and longer days. For the players, it means less hitting.
A normal weekly schedule would have had Indianapolis reviewing Sunday's game film on Monday and taking off yesterday.
Instead, the Colts pressed forward, watching footage of Kansas City on Monday. Mora said the change was not mitigated by the result, Indianapolis' 38-17 loss to New England, but out of necessity.
Yesterday, the Colts worked out minus the hitting and today, when the Colts would typically conduct a full workout in pads, they expect only a brief practice before traveling.
"The preparation is different because you've got a limited number of days to get ready," quarterback Peyton Manning said. "You certainly don't have as many days to spread your film study."
Such changes are relatively new to the Colts, who haven't played a Thursday game since 1996. Only four players — tight ends Kill Difler and Marcus Pollard, defensive
tackle Ellis Johnson and wide receiver Marvin Harrison remain from that team, which defeated Philadelphia 37-10.
"We haven't hit, so you do get your recovery time." defensive tackle Mike Wells said yesterday. "I think the game plans have to be easier, and I think you have to focus more because things come quicker."
It also gives the Colts an opportunity to get back on the field quickly, something many of the players are eager to do after losing three straight games.
By eliminating two days of preparation time, however, the Colts have made one significant change.
"This is the simplest gameplan we've had all year." Wells said. "We're going to try to play with a fever pitch, which is what we always try to do. Thursday night."
Until then, the Colts will keep things simple, keep the hitting to a minimum and focus on preparation for the game.
