<I can't believe they can remove a sport that is the essence of sport.>

I'm embarrassed that golf replaced it (as much as I love the game). What'll happen is all the pros will play, and you see them compete in the Ryder and Presidents Cup all the time. Having said that, Polvy and I could get official residencey in Guatemala and play for them. Seriously, that's a damn shame.

It's hard to believe that wrestling is being eliminated and boxing remains. I've always enjoyed good boxing, but it sure has devastated the health (or worse) of many of its participants.

Oh, come on, Mannie. We can't do every sport. We can either do synchronized swimming or rasslin'. We can't dump trampoline or rhythmic gymnastics, cuz people like to see the blood. Rasslin has got to go.

ping pong or rasslin?
badminton or rasslin'?

See?
