Golf recently made the 2016 Summer Olympic Games. Beating out shunned sports like Baseball and Softball. I mena really? Golf? Yea, it was a sport a long time ago, and by long I mean it was in the 1904 St.Louis Summer Olympics.

Seriously, the debate for new sports coem from the countires in Africa, and in Asia. Way more asian and african countries play sports such as Baseball and Cricket. Ridiculous.

Now, just think if Tiger won a Gold, that would be cool, but I still say Golf doesn't deserve the Olympics.

Cricket

Cricket is almost identicle to soccer. Not in how it is played or rules or anything, but how wide spread it is. To my knowledge only the US, Mexico, many countries in central and South America, and Canada don't have national cricket teams. Every country in Europe and even most in, gasp, Africa have teams. Really? No Olympics?

I would admit though, the games would last a full week longer with a cricket tournament.

Baseball

Asia, Europe, every Latin country, North America, South Africa, and they say this isn't a wide spread sport. Now baseball has the WBC so we as chunned baseball fans say we don't want the Olympics anything.

NASCAR

I hate NASCAR personally, it is boring, but anyway, Americans overall would love it, Chinease would love it, Germans would love it...

Fast cars. Africans would be like ??????? Hahahaha that was mean.

Football(Americano)

Why not? Canada and Europe have leagues, as for Africa, *not being racist as it is the truth* blacks are good at football.

Politics

This would be a good sport. I could see it now, Obama having as debate against Valdis Dombrovskis, or Morgan Tsvangirai, and bringing home the Gold.

Oh and for those going, politics isn't a sport!, it most deffinatly is. There could be like a triathalon. Debating, Speech, and extra marital affairs! Hey it would be better then golf...
