Why Footbag should be in the Olympics

[PoisonTaffy]

I'm surprised no one brought up any downside to such a direction. I love the thought of Olympic recognition, but cringe at the thought of standardized and predictable routines and their effect on the sport if they involve money and worldwide stages. Both in terms of possible stagnation and the amount of people who play seriously for something that is not a medal.

They do alot of drug-testing at that Olympics, even for Marijuana. Top footbag players in Freestyle and Net would all be loosing their medals... But, I think our little sport might actually benefit anyway --- they say there's no such thing as bad publicity...
