The 2 events the IOC is giving the boot to are the more entertaining ones. I have to say that both the Cuba/Korea baseball and US/Japan softball gold medal games were as exciting as it gets. I disagee with the person saying that the credibility for this article was lost on the baseball comment by the writer. He is in fact absolutely right. As for the hockey commenter, hockey will survive the winter olympics because the "Euro Centric IOC" loves the sponsorship they get from suiting up cheapshot artist Euro teams (Sweden, Norway & Finland excluded). Soccer should go or at the very least be combined with Archery and ban stretchers from the sidelines. Those pussies who fake injuries when a gust of wind blows up skirts should be become targets for the archery competition, see how fast they get up from that "injury". I like the futsul idea as long as it is full contact. Bring Rugby in because its man's game that even the Euro's can play. And that pistol shooting event? A North Korean juices up for that "sport"? I kept expecting him to have muscle relaxant rage and turn his pistol on his South Korean counterpart. That event Gone! Synchronized swimming can stay if they do it without the nose plugs and have to wear weight belts. Female wrestling stays... well for under 50KG weight class. The big girls should find a new hobby, like dieting. Regarding BMX, make them do it without bike seats, handle bars and no head gear. They are suited up like they are going on a mission to the Mir space station. All the gymastics should be at a minimum age of 18. That way we can fantasize about them without having to go to confession. Men's gymastics is just wrong. Reg Dunlap is a wise player/coach. Good article. BTW Badsey, no one cared about losing Les Nordiques, losing the Jets hurt much more. Further, while you seem to be gloating over something, I am not sure what, Canadians make more money, carry much less debt, work less and have a longer life than our good neighbors to the south. http://www.macleans.ca/canada/national/article.jsp?content=200806255011350113
