- Anything that involves 14 yo's in a leotard playing with a hoolahoop, piece of rope, etc
- Any sport that has its own professional competition that is bigger than its sport in the olympics (eg soccer, tennis, etc)
- 1/2 of the swimming events
- Basketball (just give the yanks 2 gold medals & abandon the sport)
- BMX (wtf???)
- Men's beach volleyball (the only reason people watch it is for the tits & ass with the women)
- The 10km Walk or however far it is (gayest "sport" ever. There is no situation in life where you will ever be required to get somewhere quickly by walking)
- Anything with the word "synchronised" in it (seriously, doing something exactly the same as another person is called performing, not competing)

They can keep the 10km walk as long as spectators are allowed to throw Snickers bars at them.

That speedwalking shite. Unless Mr T is there firing snickers from the turret of a tank at the competitors.

Bmx biking or whatever the discipline is called.

Ok i dont know what it was called, but they were playing like 5 on 5 with goal tenders and they were running around ( traveling ) with this little ball that fit in there hand and they would bounce it every once in a while and then try to throw it into the net past the goaltender.


I think TPWW could get a team together and go for gold in London.

Theres so many obscure, shite sports given respectability by being at the Olympics.

Surely you'd be a bit embarassed admitting you won gold for speedwalking etc

It's surely only a matter of time before they offer a Gold medal at the Olympic games for being a whiney bitch.

I'd say 'Nunder takes gold in this thread. :)

I'd like to know what people's motivation is for wanting to remove sports from the Olympics. So you don't get certain sports. Big deal. Who the fuck are you?

Synchronized swimming is the most awful.

Baseball is already officially out for the 2012 games.

It's called Handball, it's big in Europe (and nowhere else). In Germany it is almost as popular as Football.

Hangball is fucken bad ass, as is BMX.

I wanna see rugby 7s at the olympics.

Stuff like soccer and basketball and hockey. But if they are in it then I agree with BC, they should have 7 a side rugby. That would be sweet.

We played a game called handball in high school. It was very similar to olympic handball I guess. But the moral of the story is if my version was the plympic version, I could play in the olympics. I was that good. Suits my skillset perfectly

Australia

Oi what was with all that "Great Britain" crap in the Olympics? Were the poms that scared that they weren't gonna get any medals that they got the scottish & irish to play for them also?

I reckon the olympics would be more even if they made Michael Phelps represent his own country & atleast split China into 2 nations

I was so good at team handball in 10th grade that this kid yelled across the gym that he was gonna punch me in the face if I jumped in front of him again because I would always jump in front of people when they were trying to shoot. Then after like 5 games the teachers made a rule against that.

Like the dickheads here don't care...whinging about how more money needs to be spent on the athletes to make sure Australia gets more medals in 2012 :o, just sad really :$

Will and Lehmo on their Triple M show already suggested this. "Phelpmenistan" :lol:

Lol pretty hilarious seeing footage from Sky News Australia with all the Australian presenters moaning and whining for about 5 minutes straight that 'the poms' had more medals.

Bump! thx ! As soon as you wake up, you're firedOur co-worker went missing for a few hours, and we tore up the place looking for him. The boss finally found him fast asleep. Rather than wake him, he quietly placed a note on the man's chest. "As long as you're asleep," it read, "you have a job. But as soon as you wake up, you're fired." ------------The WOW gold Online Store, Open 24/7 Looking to buy wow gold (http://www.u4game.com), Items or Accounts? You would find the cheapest gold here.
