The Olympic Games have become such a joke. Instead of keeping our traditions alive, we throw it away and incorporate temporary fads that will lose its thunder eventually. What a disgrace!Comment

They're turning this into pure business,.. It shouldn't be based on popularity, rather originality and availability and ease of practice globally.. Anybody in the world can wrestle, the ORIGINAL Olympic sport which the images of are engraved in the ancient Greek walls.. by taking wrestling out they're taking the big chunk of Olympics culture out too, while keeping sports like golf, baseball, softball, and zillion classes of sailing, shooting, swimming, gymnastics,...
so they want the new generation to relate to the Olympics through baseball and golf rather than wrestling..
they must be on drugs
