Gymnastics?  Personally I think all team sports should be dropped. Olympics originally was about individual competition. Not teams and especially big money sports like Basketball,Soccer etc.

Baron de Coubertin, who revived the Olympics was a rower and made sure crew was a part of the Olympics.  Rowing was an original olympic sport, although weather cancelled the competition on 1896 Athens.

Now if you are talking ancient Olympics, we need to bring back chariot racing, we need only greek speakers, only men and in the nude.

When Borat wrestled his manager, you can get an idea of what the wrestling competition on the ancient games may have looked like.
 
My nominees for X ing from the games,

1. Synchronized swimming
2. Synchronized diving
3. Rythmic Gymnastics
4. BMX kiddie bike racing (new sport this year! oh yay!)

Pssh, rowing isn't a real sport. 


They are up there with the athletes of cricket.   :P

I'd rather see cricket added than BMX.  By about 12,000%

And remember when I told you Rob Waddell, Gold single sculler from NZ was a grinder for their AC boat?

He went back to rowing and is in the NZ double scull.

The ancient greeks knew how to move a boat.

The sail was just for coffee breaks.  Battle stations were on the oars.

But that was only because they didn't know how to sail.  It ain't all just throwing cloth up in the air in a haphazard method.   :aok

The Vikings were a good bunch of sailors.  Often times they would be caught and executed for witchcraft.  Their crime?  The ability to sail so close to the wind.

They did however find it difficult to tack up a river.

Battlestations: To the oars!
