25. Collier: Olympic Sports To Erase The best example of hypocrisy in sport is the olympic Games, Dr. Charles Yesalis of Penn fencing, the visual equivalent of spastic dueling beekeepers, http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/05198/538803.stm

Sports Previous Articles Steelers/NFL Penguins/NHL ... Events Calendar Collier: Olympic sports to erase Sunday, July 17, 2005 By Gene Collier, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette You may have noted that baseball and softball have gotten themselves thrown out of the Olympics beginning in 2012, which is good, but the International Olympic Committee, with its customary smug restraint, stopped at only two ejections. Too bad. Here are five more "sports" that are way more erasable and should have gotten a similar defenestration: water polo, shooting, synchronized swimming, fencing and badminton. Maybe if the Olympics started lopping off seven sports at a time, we could eventually get to a place where the Olympics are close enough to killing themselves to spark a reasonable discussion about whether that would be a bad thing. Though nothing formal was forthcoming in the way of reasoning from the IOC on the baseball-softball killing, committee members said publicly that baseball in particular had a credibility problem due to steroid use. That's very close to comical.

Some of the events have later gone on to become official Olympic sports. Originally, demonstration sports and events were included to showcase sports or events which were unique to the country hosting the Games, but now they are often used as a stepping stone in the application for consideration as a future Olympic medal sport.

The UK's Games Fencing There are three fencing disciplines in the Olympic programme - the Epee, the Foil and the Sabre. Competitors in the different disciplines use different swords and points scoring systems. Origins Olympic Heritage Fencing is one of only four sports to have appeared at every single Olympic Games since 1896. The others are Athletics, Swimming and Gymnastics. Competitors in the 1924 team foil competition took their sport extremely seriously, when representatives from the Italian and Hungarian teams settled their differences with a duel on the Hungarian border. Spectators intervened to stop the fight after two of the combatants were injured. Sport at Heart Fencing events in 2012 will be held in the Multi-sport Arenas, right at the heart of the Olympic Park.

38. IIDB - Olympic Sports View Full Version olympic sports fencing is a great sport, but it does move rather quickly and it s hard for the uninitiated to see what s going on. http://www.iidb.org/vbb/archive/index.php/t-29183.html

IIDB II General Discussion Forums PDA View Full Version : Olympic Sports ex-idaho February 6, 2002, 06:38 PM I heard a story on NPR today that really irritated me. The International Olympic Committee is considering making Bridge a Olympic sport. They said it was not likely but why should it even be considered? In the past dozen or so years we have seen ballroom dancing, chess, curling, surfing, snowboarding and many other marginal sports added to the roster. Do any of you feel that maybe they are going overboard? I recognize the skill and hard work that it takes to be competitive in any of these pursuits. I am not questioning that. I just feel that perhaps we have strayed to far from the origin of the games. Sakpo February 6, 2002, 06:46 PM The Olympics added male synchronised swimming. If they include that when who can claim anything else should be excluded? Oregon Slim February 6, 2002, 08:39 PM Back in the 1930's big bridge matches were played in Chicago stadium and broadcast on network radio. Bridge was sufficiently popular that President Roosevelt drew on its lexicon for the moniker of his agenda, the New Deal. At least the participants in bridge matches determine who wins, unlike, eg, ice skating where the winners are determined by seeing whose clothing designer can wrap up the most synthetic breast in the least fabric with the most sequins and by people who just sit on their butts and hold up numbers. And with all the prominent examples of anti-social behaviour by prominent athletes of the athletic sports, maybe we should try some other non-athletic sports too, like spelling, rhetoric, and mumbly-peg, and see if those give us a better class of heroes.
