Golf will be an official Olympic sport at the 2016 Summer Games.
Here are the loser applicants.
- Baseball – neener. neener. neener MLB
- Softball – girl’s game
- Squash – too much like LaCrosse or Cricket, I forget which.
- Karate – board smashing and brick breaking, I hope this gets added soon. Olympics need more bloodsport
- Roller Sports – Oh yeah, how did they miss this? half pipes and flat track racing. Hot.
Golf was an Olympic sport in 1900 in Paris and 1904 in St. Louis. I recall them well remember reading about them.
Golf proposes a 72-hole stroke-play Olympic competition for men and women, with 60 players in each field. The world’s top 15 players would qualify automatically.
Ah crap. Doomed. Stroke play golf is boring to watch on Tee Vee.
Except for Goofy Golf events after the season:
- Three Tour Challenge: Geezers, Girls and Guys
- Skins
- Senior Skins
- LPGA Skins
- Shark Shootout
- Par Three deal played in the piney woods of Northern Michigan
- Ryder Cup (not really Goofy Golf, but close.)
The Olympic Golf format should be one players can identify with.
A mixed sex scramble. Include mulligans, tosses, skirts, and have a beer cart.
U.S. Team outfitted by LoudMouthGolf of course. (Which solves the problem of letting women play, because they will refuse to be seen on the same links with guys wearing these outfits.)
And fer gawd’s sake: allowing cheering and hazing during Olympic Golf in 2016.
When Campbell Brown worked at NBC, I forecast great things for her. I thought she had a bright future.
Then she got with child and moved to CNN.
Career killers.
Here’s a commentary she did recently about the “big swinging anchors” and their feud on Prime Time Cable TeeVee (who watches this stuff anyway?) She never mentions O’Reilly and Olbermann by name, just as “big swinging anchors.”
Yeah, Campbell Brown, lots o’ guys wish you would hoist their big swinging anchors.
Arrrrrr, nice ratings boost.
