Earlier in the year I found out that the International Olympic Committee voted not to include baseball or softball in the 2012 London games. Baseball and softball do however remain on the list of potential games for future dates, however there are no guarantees.
In other news the exciting world of BRIDGE has descended upon the 2012 London games. Are you F#@!*#! kidding me? Worst yet on this mornings news, I heard that the hard to master sport of ROCK, PAPER, SICISSORS, had been holding elimination games to decide who would represent the rock, paper, scissors federation of America in Beijing for the 2008 games. Since when has dumb luck made the qualification list for sports? If that isn't bad enough, the man in charge of the rock, paper, scissors federation said that "the qualification standards for the game are low but the game takes a lifetime to master, it is the democratized sport of the world". I know, I had to pick myself up off the floor after I heard that line of s!#t.
Who are these idiots on the IOC? Maybe they're not sports enthusiasts, I certainly hope they are not being paid for the positions they hold, because my 9 year old nephew can make better decisions then they can!
