No, there was a show on History I believe, and they said the track and field events came first. Wrestling was a few Olympiad's later.Laley23 wrote:This has to be the oldest Olympic Sport? It was around for the original Olympic Games in Athens right?

Please continue. He said "just about every sport". Waiting....
And those you posted....not even in the same ballpark as wresting gayness.

I don't care for wrestling, in fact I find it insanely boring, but no way should it be cut from the Olympics.

Of ALL the sports in the Olympics I can't believe they chose to get rid of this one. I'm not a huge fan of watching freestyle or greco. It bores me more often then not, I prefer folkstyle. Regardless, I think it should be there, it's a classic event.

On a serious note. Wrestling, in NO way, should be eliminated from the Olympics. Just like they shouldn't have done away with baseball.

I dont have a problem with it as a sport, though it isnt my thing.Commander of Awesome;1387597 wrote:Curious why do you hate wrestling? I can understand it not being your thing but hating it seems extreme.
My hatred for most sports stems from my work. I broadcast sports and Wrestling is painfully boring for us and takes quite a bit of time. Plus, it isnt structured for TV well, though it isnt as bad as some others. For instance, we get a pin in the first round, we have to wait till the other mats are cleared till the next match starts. Well, that blows when you are live and have to fill with nothing for 10 minutes. Thus, my hatred for wrestling...simple as that lol. Nothing more.
I do love that it has a clock though. After working in television, all sports without a clock should be abandoned.

But seriously, go work a minor league baseball game that is 8-1 in the 8th and ends up going 16 innings. You will start a petition to have a clock in baseball by the time you get home.

I find most wrestling broadcasts are bad because the commentators have no idea what's going on. But put someone like (just an example) Randy Couture in and he'd be able to constantly explain what's going on kind of like Rogan does for bjj in the UFC.Laley23;1387680 wrote:I dont have a problem with it as a sport, though it isnt my thing.

but then you get some of them who know it really well and try to make it known they know it well by pointing out every single little flaw and it gets a bit annoying..but anyways....I Wear Pants;1387687 wrote:I find most wrestling broadcasts are bad because the commentators have no idea what's going on.
