Could be, and they fight to stay in pretty much every go round. That being said they've been there since the beginning and I'd rather watch them than skateboarding and break dancing or whatever flash in the pan sport is in now.Quote:

Hey. Skateboarding is worlds more raw and legit than some rich entitled Nancy fucksticks dicking around and abusing horses for their clout.Quote:

Time to debate event legitimacy?
Let’s bring back ballet skiing. Summer Games edition.
Narrate that, Moseley.
He could probably use the money

1000% this. It matches pretty much the Olympic ideal to perfection. My caveat would co-ed and no refs. WFDF campaigns like crazy to get in but I think the IOC is way to corrupt IMHO.Quote:

I do love the Olympic spirit and competitions.
I'd certainly rather watch either of those than some gussied up horse goose stepping around an arena.Quote:
