"sports" that have no business in the olympics

table tennis? come on people. who let in the pingpong guys?! and granted, while trampoline at least requires more athletic ability than table tennis, i don't really think it should be in the olympics.


this is stuff you just don't see in the winter olympics....maybe they'll let snowman-building in next time.

what do you guys think? should there be any such thing as a pingpong olympian? there's got to be others....

trampoline i don't seriously think they need it, synchronized diving, i like sychronized swimming but not diving.

i agree with table tennis though those guys go pretty fast. I consider chess a sport. It might not be a physical sport, but mind wise its intense for those who excel at it.

table tennis is fuckin mental. Its just like tennis, just much much faster.

If you're good, you could start sweatin' in less than 5 minutes. Its just a sport noone takes seriously in this country. But its really fun, and hard.

In my books anything that requires a certain specialization of athletic prowess should be considered a sport and thusly entered into the olympics.

But CHESS!!??? -> gimme a break... might aswell let D&D in too

i agree. I saw this on the other morning and all i could think was " when in hell did trampoline become an olympic event?" Trampoline? are they fucking serious? Yeah i know blah blah blah it takes skill but come on. it's just not a sport. I feel sad for those kids who in the future may have to actually participate in these kinda things in high school. manditory trampoline classes. jezus. It's just one big accident waiting to happen.

Dodge ball would be an awesome sport. A lot more entertaining.
It evolves in to Ultimate dodge ball. "Dodge or Die."

I'm wondering if you'll ever grow up one day and not be so much of a fucking retard.... you've made the same loser-ass sex posts for years...

I mean seriously, you're a nice guy and all but just once I'd love to read a post out of you that doesn't involve anal sex, fucking, or double stuffing... :imeanwell:

Fuck, you are so right. If only there were no women on our team. Then we would have one medal instead of 3. Fucking women.

On the other hand if there were no women the yanks would only have 26 instead of 49.

Oh god, 3......49. I'm so sad I brought that up.

did you know that the smaller your bikini and the more of your ass hangs out, the better you actually become at olympic beach volleyball?

aerodynamics maybe? i guess it's along the same lines as racing stripes making your car go faster.
