Default New Olympic Sports

Seeing as they are dropping softball for 2012 as nobody really cares about it and they've showcased BMX this year trying to appeal to a younger generation, what other sports could they include in 4 years time?

Ditch showjumping and replace it with Topless Rodeo, this would get my vote

I've heard they're going to do away with heats for any events, put all the athletes in a house together then get the public to phone in and vote off the ones they don't want in the final.

I still reckon olympic football hooliganism would draw a massive crowd.

You are aware the Rodeo is almost exclusively a male "Sport" aren't you.

I wasn't actually, seems like you watch more than I do!

In hindsight, most of the ladies sports could be improved with the removal of tops and the addition of a suitable quantity of mud

Female shot putting being the obvious exception to this rule...

Pole vaulting springs to mind.

And grease the pole while we're at it

Some good suggestions on 'Mock the Week' last night to ensure we get a better medal haul in 2012 - Darts with different weight divisions for starters
