Would have wanted all the horse events to be removed unless:
-all the horse were clones of each other, or
-use the same horse.
Otherwise its a stupid and old 'sport'

British don't give a fuck about baseball. Would rather have something like skateboarding added like snowboarding was for the Winter events. America would still get their precious, but it wouldn't be as pointless as baseball.

Cricket, fuck yeah. The games will end just in time for the next Olympics.

Cricket gets introduced as an olympic sport. The Commonwealth trolls the entire world.

Speaking of cricket, apparently Bolt is a big fan of Matty Hayden. Never would've guessed it.

I guess that also explains why the Windies are crap at cricket now, all the kids want to be Olympic sprinters.

Did you guys read the thing? The reason given to kick it out was because the americans refused to give all their professional players off for the games, making the whole thing a second rate event.
Because the thing is mainly there to please stupid americans *north and south* anyway they said well fuck you.

Where's the freakin' Olympic DDR/Stepmania competitions? I heard Norway's pushing for it.

What are all these people stepping in time with arrows and music gonna do if there's no hope that they'll get a small disk of a precious medal if they're among the best in the world at it?

Starcraft is irrelevant chiefly because it's just computerised Rock Paper Scissors.

there should be a chess-style ratings system for Starcraft. then we can have grandmaster title matches.

For baseball, they say it's because MLB won't let the good players go. And for softball, the US team was too good and has never lost...

Why won't the MLB let players go?
>> Anonymous

Because they can't get their shit together like the NHL does and schedule a break in the regular season.

Also, MLB does nothing that doesn't make MLB money.

hopefully at least it means like thirty less COUNT THE MEDALS threads than this Olympics every hour

Cricket got taken out way back, dont see any point in baseball being an olympic sport. Shitty boring game with too many fucking double plays which makes me RAGE!

MLB has no salary cap, meaning all the monies goes into scouting and salaries. They don't spend all that money just to let some fags have an Olympic dick waving contest.

Fuck baseball, but they should keep softball. For obvious non-athletic reasons.

I predict the UK football team will win a silver medal. I know they're not very good and all, and probably won't be much better then, but I get the feeling they'll fluke a way through, Liverpool style.

Baseball really should stay in the olympics because it is a legitimate international sport, but, since the MLB won't let the pros play (for good reason) I guess I see no point in keeping on the card. Womens softball is a different story, though.
