London 2012
The IOC just voted to drop both softball and baseball from the 2012 Oplymics. I contend this is wrong. These sports may not be the most popular sports at the oplymics, but they have their fans.

1. Could possibly be the a US team comprised of
a bunch of "naturalized citizens" or people on green cards . . .

2. I'm upset about that.
Both those sports should be a part of the Games.

3. Question
Are they going to at least put two sports in their place.... or are they just going to leave these out and not include anything else in?


In any case... I wish both sports would stay.

4. Maybe
The IOC could not come up with a replacement for the two sports. Maybe they will try to decide on replacements later.
