Summer Olympic Games Paris 2024 Sports Programme

I want koekhappen ('cookie biting', sort of)  to be Olympic, where can I suggest it?

 

Look, it's for young:

And it's for old:

There's a Paralympic wheelchair version:

It's quite international, they even do it in Africa (and no, that's not 'he is black so it's Africa', it's actually in Africa):

It's super traditional and has a rich history:

One may even do it on horse if one so wishes:

And last, but definitely not least, the freaking king himself does it and his queen absolutely loves it:

oh, by the way...on the trend topic in general...I'm totally disgusted and I wish IOC and Paris 2024 an epic fail...

 

I'm really tired of this sh*t...if they go on like that, my uninterrupted true and deep 36-year love for the Games is going to end once and forever...

 

fu*k them all...Paris organizers, French NOC and IOC as well...

I kinda feel like this, but I just know I'm gonna end up spending 36 hours per day for over two weeks watching (almost) everything anyway :p

Yeah, I don't wish a fail. If I don't attend the equestrian events at Versailles then I'm probably never going to attend the Olympics. :p

So ok, we all hate this selection. Fine.

 

But, beyond our personal feelings, do you think this new urban/youth sports policy could work ? Will it attract the new audience the IOC is wishing for ?

Milano Cortina 2026 will be their fifth Olympic Games.    * The following are athlete roster adjustments that occurred after their respective sport’s team announcement took place. 
    • https://olympic.ca/press/207-athletes-to-represent-team-canada-at-the-milano-cortina-2026-olympic-winter-games/   Official Canadian press release. 207 athletes as @Topicmaster1010mmentioned earlier.    
    • Olivia Weaver was up 9-4 in the 5th game.  Hania El Hammamy  then scored 5 straight points to tie it up.  Then, took the lead with a sixth straight point, then won with a 7th straight point, taking the Sprott Tournament of Champions in New York.  Still, congrats to Weaver for bringing home second place!  (And congrats to El Hammamy...what a streak at the end!)
    • One thing working in our favor with Luge is that Women's Doubles is just one sled per NOC, so I like our chances there.  We'll be 3rd or 4th in the Relay (one of my favorite events)...if everyone slides cleanly, we'll probably be 4th, behind , , and ...but anything can happen in the relay.  (I think in my official predictions I had us 3rd.  Wishful thinking, I suppose.)
    • They can also just count DNSs to handle this specific situation.
    • I suspect IBSF will make the point system equal in the future regardless on the number of competitors.   My fear is that they will make the awarded points lower, like only 90 points to the winner to balance it out.
    • Olivia Asselin (freestyle skiing)   She was at the X Games competing this week. Another medal hope out the drain, she was in the form of her life 
    • You'd have to ask her simpatic boyfriend from the USA about that, who is often seen at competitions with her participation
    • I think Ro is on a lot of marketing stuff, so I don't imagine USABS would be all that keen on her losing the spot. Perhaps that accounts for their deafening silence.
