They could make the Olympics much better with a little pruning of the list of sports before adding any.

Sports I'd like to abolish:

Synchronized Swimming
Synchronized Diving
Rythymic  Gymnastics
Team Gymnastics
Synchronized Swimming
Butterfly stroke in swimming
Badminton
Rythymic  Gymnastics
Softball (let 'um play real baseball)

Oh yeah, and Synchronized Swimming and Rythymic  Gymnastics.

I hope the Americans don't manage to make this year...

It'll give the rest of us a chance to win some medals!

Ravs :)

WTG Leon!

You can win a medal in

Free Pistol

You can win a medal in

Rapid fire Pistol

You can win a medal in

Air Pistol

You can win a medal in

Small Bore Rifle

But you can't win a medal in Small Bore Pistol, no matter what "bore" you use... cause there ain't no such event.

You can't win a medal in long ski shushing either, even though they wear long skis,  but you can win the Downhill.
