We want competition so we can get better rather than beating teams like American Samoa 28-0 everytime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would just offer a bit of universality. I disagree from the major of sports fans, but the the Olympics should be seen as an exposition/celebration of sport, not a glorified world championships. The best teams/athletes in the world should be there, but there should be room for universality too. NearPup 1 “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.
