Can't figure out what's Olympian about synchronised swimming, and various other non-sports like that.

Bit surprised that Squash isn't in the Olympics. I know that the U.S. has a different version of the game, but I'm sure they could adapt...

bongo, nice watch to see how today's Olympic sprinters fair against those of yesteryear


Very interesting stuff, the Swimming and Long jump are worth a look also.
Quite fascinating \(thumbs u

If you have a dream about out-posting me, you better wake up and apologize.

Watching golf is just like any other sport, if you give it a chance you can get sucked in. I don't watch much of it, but the Ryder Cup in particular is always really exciting to watch.

It's a sport that requires a great deal of skill.

Should it be in the Olympics? Probably not, but then neither should football IMHO.

I have tried watching golf, even tried to play it a few times, I dunno just not enough happening for me.
I also don't think football belongs in the Olympics
