11:35 AM home archives columns post ... search Please Support September 23, 2004 New Olympic Sports being considered for 2012 : include golf, rugby, karate, squash and "roller sports," while softball, baseball and modern pentathlon may be on the chopping block. If, as Jacques Rogge has stipulated, no new sport can be added without being deleted, what would you add and what would you remove? posted by chicobangs to Olympics at 9:29 AM CST (30 comments total) "...without another being deleted, ..." They're talking Summer Olympics only here, though if anyone wants to nominate, oh, Ice Dancing for removal, I wouldn't argue. posted by chicobangs at 9:31 AM CST on September 23 roller sports? hell no. unless its of the derby variety. Karate would be cool. Tai Kwan Do is great to watch, and I'd like to learn more about the differences between the two styles. re: deletion...there are so many, i'm sure one is expendable. posted by garfield at 9:37 AM CST on September 23 Darts should be an Olympic sport, dagnabbit! If Andy Fordham isn't an athlete, I don't know who is! | |
