Throwing events would be a better place to reduce something. Why throw a shot, a shot with a chain attached to it, a discus and a javelin?  

 

Or triple jump, what's the meaning of looking at who is the best at combining a skip, hop and jump? 

And walking makes sense or what? The difference is that walking is the only event in athletics were judges decide. By the same logic we could also get rid of all events in swimming except for the freestyle events.

Second foul for Mayer...

Mayer in trouble..if he had hit one of those first two jumps (as in, not foul) he would even expand on his PB course.

Scandal in mens race walking!

Junghannß got to close to Toth so the judges decided to disqualify him, the same happened in the past with german sprinters in the Tour de France who were stupid enough to beat Sagan. Slovenian bullying in sport has to stop!

OK, why don't we get rid of the whole Track & Field?

After all, it's only a bunch of doped guys running here and there or doing even stranger things...

Yes, its a shame to have good sports like swimming and cycling at the olympics games alongside dirty sports like athletics or football.
