    Rocker if ur looking for blame here then go no further past the baby boomer generation mindset where centuries of tradition becomes no match for increased sponsorship revenue.

    And go figure, GOLF is going to be back in the Olympics after 100 years. I have a very hard time considering Golf as a sport. It is about as much of a sport as Billiards or Bowling.

    Watch the greed driven prikks do what they want (so to speak).

    Sure they could be stopped but I like even a pseudo democracy much more than anarchy...

    He adds, "If I see anybody on the street that work from the IOC I swear to the Jesus I suplex them put them in camel clutch break their back make them humble."

    Looks like they censored a part of the Iron Sheik's message here.

    the problem is this is the pinnacle of this sport. Basketball, baseball, golf, tennis, soccer have championships that mean more than this medal. This is the highest mountain for this sport and it was removed.

    What will be added? Any idea what the front runner is?

    I heard modern pentathlon was on the chopping block.. It sounds really cool but I don't remember even seeing one minute of coverage about it.

    This means more top level olympic caliber wrestlers from nations like Russia will start popping up in MMA the talent level from Russia isn't at it's potential, when all these wrestlers will have nothing to aim for since the olympics are out of the picture. More of these guys who win gold medals are going to transfer to MMA.
