Yeah

1. Football/soccer
2. Basketball
3. Hockey(Ice & Roller which I dont like but Europeans love)
4 Baseball

Also Auto Racing is a sport right, so that means F1 would be 4 and baseball 5.

ping pong is not interesting. They might as well allow billiards and darts if they play that.

Baseball is one of the most popular TEAM sports in the world, with intense following in North America, Central and South America, Japan and other asian nations. Please tell me how that isn't good enough to be in the Olympics.

I sense a bit of a European bias in you, actually.

Wow i'm glad there is actually a decent argument about this subject here in the Sports Forum rather than the Chill Out room. I was going to post something in that thread, but there was too much hostility and baseball bashing, i just kept my mouth shut.

It's kind of sad that the Olympic Committee is dropping the sports, but then again i can't say i ever watched Olympic Baseball to be honest. And so now that they're going to be getting rid of it, I'm not really upset.

The summer olympics come around once every 4 years. That's too long for me to really care much about it or get reasonably competitive for it.

as much as I am a huge baseball fan, I really don't care about the olympic baseball (or olympic soccer, or almost every summer or winter olympic event)


I rather see the world cup of baseball take off

A lot of owners aren't keen on the WC of Baseball thing...especially Steinbrenner (but he seems senile lately). Baseball would never shut down for a week or two to send the players to the Olympics...it's actually amazing the NHL can do so when you think about it.

But I guess if nobody is watching baseball in the Olympics, then might as well get rid of it. It just makes me chuckle a little when I see shit like beach volleyball, ping pong and that sport where the gymnast dances around with those flapping paper wand things included...but baseball is kicked out.
