My Opinion:  Below are the reason to Add/Remove

 

Reasons to be removed:

 

 1. Any Sports where judges are Corrupt -  Boxing is best example

 2. Any Sports where More money is there to Control Olympics - Mens football - U23 - SERIOUSLY , Then Why Youth Olympics is there

 3. Any Sports which are not popular in More than 3 Continents - Eg. Canoeing Slalom, Modern pentathlon etc...

 4. No need of too many Combat Sports 

 5. Sports with too many medals  - Eg Swimming .. What we are trying to prove with too many event ..

 

Reason to be Added:

 

1. Add Squash - Well formatted sports

2. Add more team sports  - Enjoyable to watch - Gets more sponsor for Olympics - Eg. Kabadi (One Popular in India, Iran, Even in US too) ,  Sepaktakraw - Popular in South east Asia

3.  Add mixed team events as much as possible - So we will get real meaning of Olympics .. No discrimination in Ethnic, gender, race, religion, language.... Best example is Mixed Team at Archery  & Gymnastics etc

Cricket would add a lot of diversity since it's the most popular sport in India / Pakistan / Bangledesh / Afghanistan / Sri Lanka.

 

Diversity ???? .... All these Countries are colonies of UK Earlier ..

 

But believe me .. Same thing going to happen like foot ball at Olympics .. Because all important teams like Australia , SA or India will ask important players to take rest and send remaining to Olympics .. and it will be no meaning to have this Sport after that in Olympics .. Real example is last Asian Games.. India didn't event send its team

 

My personal Opinion the Sports with lot of money no need to be there at Olympics.. the many other games that can represent there ..

Weightlifting: Ether leave only few bigger weight classes or remove this sport entirely. 

 

Add:

Air Sports: Just that it would be possible to say that human competes in all elements  Few nicer events like skydiving formations, accuracy paragliding and etc. that is within Olympic rules for no motor events.

Baseball: Just to add more versatility

Cricket: Just to add more versatility. Although personally I won't like it

 

 

 

I am not fan of Cricket/Baseball to be added to Olympics as it doesn't add diversity .. But Squash and Karate is good sport to be added
