Question

why do you think that is?takes to long or is usa softball team that good.sport they should get rid of is table tennis(aka..ping pong)i guess they dont get rid of ping pong is the asians are good at it?

Answer 1

From what I have heard....they are getting rid of it because all of the best baseball players around the world play in the MLB and are not willing to leave their teams to play in the Olympics.  Therefore, since the talent isn't the best for the baseball teams, they feel that they should get rid of the sport.  

For softball, I heard they were getting rid of it because they were getting rid of baseball.  But I also heard they were getting rid of it because the U.S. team kills everyone every year, so there is no point in having it if the U.S. dominates year after year.  

Answer 2

20 20 cricket would make an awsome olympic sport.Its played by around at least 20 countries including south east asia and canada.

ping pong is huge throughout asia although most of the other countries are represented by ex chinese players who cant get a start for china.

Baseball is not played at a high level by many countries thats probably why there canning it.

Answer 3

I'm sure it's because it's a minority sport with only a few nations competing, same reason why cricket shouldn't be in.  

Other than Canada, USA, Japan and Cuba who plays baseball ? Mexico ? Korea ? some small nations ?  

Answer 4

I never knew baseball was in the Olympics. How about introducing some 20/20 cricket instead of baseball.
