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.
