Men's football (even U23) is certainly the most global Olympic team sport. Just for that it deserves to stay.

Being global is important, but is or should not be that much more important than having a competitive field with as many of the best competitors in the world as possible.

There's a strong rumor that the IOC and the organizing committee would consider the reintroduction of karate if the World Karate Federation changed a few rules, there's hope because they are already t

I'm the only one who thinks this is kind of stupid? Olympic sports should have some sort of a long term plan, no just one appearence and that's all. 2028 Olympics being in LA is going to push for

lol we are going to end up with like 5 entries per event at this rate. More sports in the same quota = less athletes competing per event. Stupid idea.   If you are going to add sports, incre

The simple answer is to increase athlete quotas and have the Olympics be hosted across 2-3 metro areas in a nation.

I have a solution that will release many athletes/quotas. Get rid of football!  That are 504 athlete quotas. 

Olympics should be a stage where we see the best athletes in every sport. Do any expect to see Messi, Ronaldo, Mbappe, etc..  at the Olympics in Tokyo? 

If football doesn't begin to take it's role as an olympic sport seriously, I would mean that many other sports deserve a chance at the Olympics instead of football. 

 

p.s I'm a massive football fan. The sport I watch the most is, with no doubt, football. Both club and international matches. I love the sport and I find it to be a disgrace to watch Olympic football compared to the World Cup, especially for the best teams. The Olympics should at least have the same level or status as the World Cup.

I agree with both of these statements. Definitely would be fine with kicking out boxing and adding Squash and Climbing with the quotas that creates.

Right, appearing once thanks to a questionable decision makes you an "Olympic sport". Inside the Games seems to be very slanted towards karate. They have (repetitive) articles about it almost every day. :wacko:

They are sponsored by quite a few NF's and I'd suspect WKF is one of them...

Yes, they run ads often. However, I chat with most of them and I think they just prefer Karate to the other new sports. Plus, as a student journalist, I know that writing on controversial topics is fun and easy.

More often they write about not very controversial topics though, unless you want a big fight about who is the new vice-president of Togo's boules federation or something.

      I also experienced the same issues with other websites in the past 2 years (one was non the less than mlb.tv, which I could reach only behind an Italian vpn for months 2 years ago)   it came out that here it was connected to the fucking anti-piracy shield of the Italian government (despite I'm not using any pirate website, only free or paid official ones), with some providers having a lot of their subnet addresses completely blocked because of one signaled violation within their CDN   however, I don't think it's the same kind of issue in  of course   the only advice I can give, it's to try and connect under a vpn (even of your own Country, but still under a vpn)   normally this overcomes all kinds of blocks at any level, intentional or unintentional   and if a home broadband connection doesn't work, always try the data connection of your smartphone (if you have one) before starting to seriously worry

      Gymnastics - Rhythmic Discussion | Qualification to Summer Olympic Games Los Angeles 2028

      it's always all about the "USSR-alike" methods used by the coaching duo Maccarani/Tishina at their National Academy   now some leaked phone calls have shown the former Federation's president commenting on the girls with sexist expressions and things like that   moreover, it's been discovered that also Raffaeli and Baldassari were treated like the team by their coach Julieta Cantalupi, forced to get naked in public after missing some exercise in training or kept for hours closed in a dark and cold small room in punishment after a not satisfactory training section   basically, all the Italian stars of the Rhythmic Gymnastics have come to success only after and possibly because of unacceptable humiliation by the coaches, which looks to be the usual attitude also among the youngsters and the "amateur" clubs   Italian Rhythmic Gymnastics is a dirty, sick world     now the Group is basically not active and doesn't go to the next world cup stages, Baldassarri has retired and Raffaeli looks to be happy with her new coach (the Goddess herself, Claudia Mancinelli) after Cantalupi ran away like a rabbit to Israel in Autumn 2023 after the first rumors about the scandals came out

      Regarding Josif Miladinov case I am not extremely surprised. He is living in Switzerland and does not train with bulgarian team during last couple of years. From his last interviews I only saw lack of any motivation and desire to keep developing his results. He seemed not devoted to the sport and was missing a lot of events due to injuries which was apparently not the only reason. Swimming is really on the rise during last couple of years in Bulgaria but there is some problems too. This year a big olympic size swimming pool was opened in Plovdiv which is super news for the sport in the country. Hopefully further pools will be build in near future, also in small towns.
