It bugs me...

It bugs me... that golf, rugby, squash, karate and roller sports are being considered as possible new sports at the 2012 Olympic Games, while softball, baseball and modern pentathlon could be excluded.

Could you see golf going in and baseball being removed... it could happen.

Golf's not even a sport... it's an activity!

In my book the criteria for a sport are:
1. You could pull a groin or bleed while doing it
2. You sweat while doing the sport
3. You need to be fit to do the sport (if I'm in better shape then some of the sport pros then it's not a sport... see John Daly)
4. You can't do the sport and still drink beer or smoke while doing it (see above)
5. There are no judges in sports (referees, umpires, officials... ok, judges... not ok)

I know you weren't equating Karate or Rugby with "activities".

Bruce bled during golf -- just ask him.
