Skateboarding in the olympics?

Name: Anonymous 2007-11-30 8:57

Does skateboarding belong in the Olympics? It's a global sport and it's popularity is only rising. Kids keep getting better at younger ages.
While it seems cool, I don't think it belongs there. It's something completely different from any other sport. There's no rules to be fagged out about, no faggot team rivalry (most of the rivalry is personal), it's not all censored and cunt-like and so many skaters are stoners that it has a bad rep. So is it even feasible to put it in the Olympics?

Sports with a subjective rating system and where luck is a large factor are unfit for the Olympics.

What's with this faggot posting this bullshit? GTFO!

But if sports where luck is a factor or sports that have subjective rating system aren't fit for the olympics, that makes skateboarding a good candidate. Skateboarding takes extreme skill and balance and accuracy. You must memorize foot placement, watch the flips, keep your shoulders right and an endless list of things based on skill. The only rating system goes from:
1. novice (No sponsors)
2. shop sposnorship
3. Company flow team (Free stuff from a company)
4. amature sponsorship
5. professional sponsorship (You can actually make money for skateboarding in demos, signature shoes and other signature products)

So wouldn't that make skateboarding a damn good candidate? I mean, look at snowboarding. It has the same system. The only difference is that snowboarding has less of a bad rep than skateboarding.

but maybe they should adopt a system similar to THPS for scoring. I'm serious.

No, don't put skateboarding on Olympics for Tony Hawk game series sake.

No, we need to take "Sports" Out of the Olympics. They are dumb.
