Quasit 849 Posted August 22, 2016 #32 Share Posted August 22, 2016 I'm all about more events so I'm ready for people disagreeing with my "utopic" proposals. Archery: mixed team [+1] Athletics: 4x800m or 4x1500m relay [+2] Canoeing (Sprint): two women's C events and men's/women's K-1 5000m [+4] Canoeing (Slalom): men's C-2 stays, 2 out of 3 team events (women's K-1, men's K-1, men's C-1) [+2] Cycling (Track): keirin goes in exchange for 500m/1000m time trials and men's madison [-2 +3] Equestrian: out with dressage [-2] Fencing: full programme with all teams [+2] Football: I like LDOG's proposal of men's futsal and women's football [+-0] Gymnastics (Trampoline): synchronised events [+2] Modern Pentathlon: mixed team relay [+1] Shooting: a men's 300m rifle event and 10m running target for both (also, what ever happened to women's double trap?): [+3] Swimming: mixed 4x100m relay [+1] Table Tennis: doubles instead of team [+-0] Taekwondo: at least one more category for both [+2] Triathlon: mixed team [+1] New sports not being introduced for Tokyo: Air Sports: whatever Bearas would suggest [+2] Boules: pétanque singles [2] Inline Speed Skating: various distances, road only (and I don't care about speed skating already being at the Winter Games) [+6/8] Orienteering: middle, sprint relay [+4] Squash: singles [+2] Wushu: taolu only, I know some would really hate this sport at the OG [+6/8] Stopped watching sports, there are better things in life.

Thank You and definitely big congrats to Team GB (Always a soft spot for me since i love london so much) Couldn't you spare one medal and allow Sarah Hammer to win finally? sigh..... The world really should catch up, though i enjoy that kind of performance in the core sports Swimming, Track and Field, Women Gymanstics. I don't think i sang the Star Spangled Banner so much in my life! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

De_Gambassi 896 Posted August 22, 2016 #40 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Juste maintenant , Quasit a déclaré: Yes, precision is also good. Chances for Cambodia and Madagascar, and of course France. Yea, but still, I think it's the first time i see a non-french person genuinely calling for pétanque's introduction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
