Thousands softball-playing girls, outside the USA, have their dreams: Playing ball at the Olympics. Their dream, not the gold, just to play with and against the best at the largest tournament men has ever known. That dream has been struck.

The olympics have turned themselves into a laughing stock, so convoluted with BS non sport sports like power walking, you cant even find a decent real sport to watch.. now even worse, Golf. Then they get rid of one of the few decent sports in the olympics - softball?!?!?! Probably the top in popularity in terms of a team in the US. (I dont know about its popularity Eurupe which you allude to, especially since its their votes that got rid of it, the idiot Easton only abstained)

The olympics are officially lame.
