Im really surprised to read about the breackdancing is the same or even better than karate, which for good or bad, is a martial art with a sport competition with many decades of developmente, in the other side we have just a type of dancing with jurys.......a non sport competition is the same or even better than a sport, ok. The Karate can be or not part of the olympic games again, it doesnt changes the essence of the olympics in anyway, i hope i never listen about breackdancing again except in a movie, serie or watching some dudes dancing it in the streets.

I vote for NO.

In summary: there are visions of "how the ideal olympics games must be" like persons interested in them are. Im surprised about some reasons to "cut that sport or that part of that sport".

It is from "long time ago" but the Polo was removed of the olympics games FOREVER after Argentina defeat every teams in that olympic games and in the finall 11 to 0 with the british.

Ok, iif i have to give someone here the award of "more shocking thing i have ever read in totallympics", sure it will for you. You can imagine, like argentinian, is a duty of "self preservation" to be updated with our mad economy.

Wow, you know Villarruel (i dont expect that from nobody outside Latin America), she use politically the situation knowing that the mayority of the people dont have the perception to make nothing wrong (be or not be like that) The coach of our rugby team says: he never lived something like this hostility, even their familys were insulted in the streets of Paris. i Hope all this matter with France finish quick but i dont think it will happen.

You are complety rigth George, is just i think that in these days, all the western IOC directings are like Thomas Bach, i presume there arent many Rogges now, even from another continent. With Rogge i see impossible to have that addition of sports for "only this edition" like Karate in Tokyo 2020 and breaking for Paris 2024.

Dont understand me wrong: like you say, the world changes and with it the olympic games, i only pretend to an IOC Presidente who didnt make to much changes, for example: the teen sports which are added, still in the olympics, but dont added the E-sports for example, with things like that i will be conformable. I really dont know how many real power has the IOC president, probably is just the head of a group of directings who think more or less the same, another "head" can means another group to take the power, may be with diferent ideas or not. Just a dream.

I agree to you and i added: the food and beds for the athletes, the absence of air-conditioning, what happen with Shelly Ann Fraser Pryce...... Like argentinian, i never see what happen with the hostility of the public against our athletes in every single sport (may be the only exception was Torres who wins the gold in BMX freestyle), i didnt see that in any South American, Panamerican or Olympic Games before (including Rio), ok, the french are mad with our football team (is not the same team like Henry says but is the same sport), but with all the rest the same?. I added: the web site is the best i can remember. The argentinian performance: an average olympic one.

Me me!!, if your goverment give me the Visa before

I really like to be here, is the only site where i have contact with people around the world and if i dont enter, my english level will be even worse.

En los Juegos Sudamericanos van a estar, es un comienzo.

The next South Americans Games will be in Argentina 2026 and.......it will have E-sports, i inform you, is not 100% abstract the topic.

You are rigth, our basket is in a big crisis and i dont see a solution in the short term, the argentinian basket leadership is complete corrupt and disastrous.

That day will come soon or later, after what happen in Athens 2004, they hay the "obligation" to send their best NBA team, not like before.

What do you think about an incorporation of the E-sports to the olympic program?

Por cierto: @biyeta es santafesino y nos dará una mano en los Sudamericanos, o no?

Ok, bad example, i think in japanese for their mentality. Im not against all the incorporation, the skateboard is ok for example but i see an exageration in this politics.

Buen dato, para mi sorpresa leí una nota de Ole hace un tiempo largo que existe en flag football en Argentina y no seria "de tan bajo nivel" mundial, agrego al squash como un deporte que podría aportar mas clasificados, especialmente en la rama masculina.

May be is a dream: but i really want to the next IOC president be somebody outside the western countrys, foe example a japanese, to at least be more dificult to have some bad olympics politics, one is what @ChandlerMne mention about the "teen sports" like breakdance.

1) Coincido, además Vernice con 33 años en Los Angeles, no lo veo con nivel para seguir en un K1 y ser competitivo. 2) Absolutamente, la selección mayor masculina no es tan mala igual, especialmente Jato y el especialista en anillas (se me fue el nombre) 3) Totalmente de acuerdo. 4) ¿Por que solo un ciclo olímpico mas?, son muy jóvenes ambos, salvo que por algún motivo la clase Nacra vaya a ser eliminada del programa olímpico, diría igual hacer eso con toda la selección de vela, tienen mas "vida útil" que casi todos los deportes, Lucia Falasca fui 11 y podría haber entrado en la medal race si tenia mas regatas, ya tiene experiencia olímpica de sobra, podría rendir bien "la próxima". 5) Coincido, en un momento llegamos a tener a una ciclista joven en mountain bike muy prometedora que "desapareció" lamentablemente. 6) Digo lo mismo que con la vela: es un deporte con mucha vida útil, se les debería dar bastante bola y ayudar a revivir escopeta que hoy es solo el irregular Federico Gil. 7) Absolutamente y continuar con el crecimiento en la rama femenina, que ya para el próximo ciclo olímpico podría hasta clasificarse. 8) Muy de acuerdo pero sin descuidar al resto de la natación, es un deporte muy importante, entiendo que Macarena Ceballos no llega al próximo o al menos de manera competitiva. Agrego: La hermana menor de Luz Casadeval fue campeona mundial juvenil en pesas, a no descuidarla!!, que esa Federación es un desastre con los deportistas, en escalada Valentina Aguado es una atleta con futuro, Matias Del Ollio también tiene que ser fuertemente apoyado (leí una nota de el y pocas veces vi una historia tan sacrificada para ser deportista), el tenis de mesa masculino pinta a que puede tener un buen equipo a nivel continental con un Santiago Lorenzo con mas madurez. Gente, recuerden que los sudamericanos próximos son en Santa Fe (deberíamos intentar ir a verlos), lo que implica que va a ser un inicio de ciclo olímpico distinto, con equipo completo en ese torneo, para ver en donde estamos, lo que también implica algún apoyo mayor del estado y sponsors de lo habitual (al menos para esa competencia), con el desastre del país en el ultimo tiempo, no considero que se haya retrocedido demasiado respecto a Tokyo y con algo mas de apoyo, se puede avanzar bastante en comparación.

Uzbekistan is 13 in the medal table mostly with "figth sports", incredible.

The time pass and the gold of Athen 2004 cant find "a sequel" for another country

Somebody has doubts about USA will win the Medal Table IN LA 2028?

People, China has a boxig final today too to help them to keep the distance.
