Wow.... Could that really be considered a sport!? That seems kind of a stretch...

and I wonder what the backstories will be on the Olympian Pole Dancers commentated by Bob Costas... :P

on the other hand....for once a guy might give up a football game for this segment of the olympics.... :P


But still...no I don't think and I don't want this part of the Olympics.....


Although I hope this doesn't become a Winter Olympic thing...because...this could be a bad scenario

...You sure it isn't a joke of some sort? I ask because there are many sites that recreate news sites and create fake news stories that later become viral. This is how the "Obama Changes Christmas" stories started.

If this becomes a sport and they keep Women's Softball out, I'll riot.

I have very mixed feeling about this. On one hand, it could be interesting to see. On the other hand, I really don't know how it is considered a sport. Would it be judged, like ice dancing? In that case, I mean, I don't really see what's so wrong with it. It's just a little.... odd.
