        Perhaps some country opposed and it was saved. They wanted to ban from olympics several disciplines that Poland was gold at, and Poland saved them.

            Considering this is the 'New Asia', no one will watch unless they include online games as an Olympic sport.

                I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

                  Hold on a second, we are being quick to flame Winston but he has a point. China has an atrocious record when it comes to human rights and a boycott of the games is the only moral thing to do...

                          If it was it's been rather misguided and ineffective.

                            Nope. Baseball and softball, on the other hand, were removed.
