What sport should be left out of the Olympics?

if that's the case, then what about chess?! i don't know who included chess in the first place.
as for shooting and archery, it's actually tiring if you tried it. your eyes hurt after a while and your hands will be damn tired, so it's quite taxing really.

 

hopefully HOPEFULLY they do not include LAN gaming in the future

 

This is so easy, of course badminton should be left out.

I kid, I kid.

Snooker should go.

 

I actually would like to see competitive gaming in the olympics.

 

Are chess and snooker Olympic events?

 

I hope not. Oooops, did I just say that out loud?

 

No. see www.olympic.org/uk/sports/index_uk.asp
Chess has it's own "Olympiad" I think.

Football, baseball, softball, tennis should go, in my opinion.
and maybe basketball

 

Ridiculous, I say! Football, tennis, and basketball?! Baseball and softball I can understand to some degree (not moving most of the time), but football, tennis, and basketball (this especially) are extremely taxing on the body, require tactics, formations (basketball and football). Basketball especially, with its many formations, techniques, incessant flow, and jumping, occasional diving, body pounding (down in the post), it's my favorite sport aside from badminton.

I am not for equestrian being in the Olympics, as the horse does most of the work, the jockey tries to remain aerodynamic and have the horse go faster, but if the horse is no good, the jockey's screwed. In badminton, the jockey would be the equivalent of the racket: minimally helpful.

 

Probably one of softball or baseball. Maybe synchronized swimming and rhythmic gymnastics. The line between sport and art are being blurred IMO.

 

cricket lol lol

 

how about curling?

 

Baseball (and/or softball) is already going to be cut which sucks cause we're actually sort of good at it [].
Archery is definitely tiring, just try to pull back the cord/string
For me shooting can go simply because it involves guns but since it takes a whole lot of practice to be that good I still have some respect for it.
Other things that can go: football because the world cup is the most important cup (and who wants to see "lazy" millionaires walk around with olympic medailles that others have to give up everything for just to get into the olympics) and it's only the u23 squads so not the best of the best. Also taekwando has to go as it's simply a ridiculous shouting match . And the level was pretty disapointing last olympics.

What genius even brought up chess and snooker

 

Hey hey, no bad words about curling !! How else am I going to get into the olympics the easy way haha.

 

I think chess should be out too it does tire your body, THE BRAIN
same as snooker
