therefore the Olympics are left with top individual competitors. Makes sense to replace more team sports with individual performance sports, which seems to be the trend.
The question of objectivity comes up, of course. To try and make things more objective they always teach us a new set of vocabulary (think triple-axel, triple-lutz, etc.).
I wonder what new vocab we'll be adding with breakdance in the Olympics?
It's kind of weird to do this now, as opposed to 20+ years ago. Second of all, it's not a sport. Third of all, it's disgraceful to have this, but not baseball or softball.
some terrific break dancing. Very athletic and very entertaining. I don't know how you would judge it fairly because everybody does something different.
Seriously what a joke.
As well as the French judge....

But fucking breakdancing is in. Whatever.
Seriously what a joke.
Viewership wasn't good, from what I remember, but it is weird to add breakdancing.
Why not other forms of dance?
People will watch though. It would be so you think you can dance on steroids
How was the viewership for, say, team handball?

I tell ya, synchronized swimming is sure pulling in the ratings.
