The Olympic Games are well past their use by date. The idea of being the best is now so far out of touch that being the best is not getting caught. It's got that bad in weight lifting that they are goning to consider if it will be in the next games. And as for that swimming balet thing, ok there is considerable skill in it but is it sport. And talking about swimming about the only thing that makes that exciting is the commantry. Like if the sound was off on the tv would you watch it? The Olympics has become and industry that needs the sportspeople to sell their products. It use to be about sport but not any more.

Well, they just need some better sports, how about a Supermoto race with everyone on say DRZ400's?

Well they compete on pushbikes, horses, row boats, sail boats and windsurfers etc whats the difference if they had say 20 identical bikes?

the windsurfers used to be a "mistral one-design" which was a set board and sail!

tried out for '96 in aus but failed badly :doh:
