If you could add a sport to the Olympics what would it be?

Fed up talking videogames? Why?

Nah, its called airsoft because its a lower powered version of Airhard, which is commonly known as paintball, but was originally Airhard sport IIRC.

The oppressed are allowed once every few years to decide which particular representatives of the oppressing class are to represent and repress them in parliament.

Darts would probably be the last sport I'd want added to the Olympics.

An Olympics sport where being overweight and able to hold your drink are of benefit would feel so wrong.

I would like to see a form of the Old Kirkwall Ba' game:

http://www.orkneyjar.com/tradition/bagame/index.html

I guess the whole Olympic teams would compete in place of a closing ceremony. They would each be given a target goal somewhere within the Olympic park or a selected area with the same land mass as Kirkwall, a ball would be dropped in the middle of the assembled group the first team to gets the ball to their goal wins. There are no other rules.

Amusement under late capitalism is the prolongation of work.
