So I see that breakdancing is in for 2024 and softball/baseball/karate is out.

They took karate out? :aicmon:

Someone explained to me that the Olympic Committee want to have 25 core sports and then let the host country pick sports they want to add that have some worldwide appeal but not in the core.

Japan chose baseball, softball and karate. France chose breakdancing.

Pretty sure we’ll bring back baseball/softball for 2028.

That's just your opinion. Cool whatever :manny:



During the Cold War especially, The Olympics was constantly the USA vs USSR and a battle of "Who's the best?" :manny:




Right now, we're in a geopolitical conflict with China. Of course, things are going to get political. Check the Chinese interwebs and you'll see that many of them (though not all) are mad that America is #1 in golds. It's about bragging rights breh. Whether you believe it or not :manny:

Your posts come across as if we are going against the Soviet Union in 1972, lol. It’s weird and out of pocket. :heh:
I fukking knew it :russ:

You are a weird dude.

Caught some the closing ceremony to finish the cycle. I regret not watching it over the last decade and change, but I caught enough this time around. Looking forward to the future. :obama:
