Members of the International Olympics Committee convened today to vote on which new sport would be allowed into the Summer Games. Wrestling beat out squash, baseball and softball. I like to think that they announced the decision by blowing five interlocking white smoke rings.

Er...not to be daft but wasn't it already an Olympic Sport? Is Greco-Roman wrestling something different?

Yes, it was, and the it was dropped, and now restored...meaning it's a bit misleading for Gabrielle to refer to it as a "new" sport.

They cut it a while back... but now they got it back.

I'm still boycotting until they reinstate architecture. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_compe…

Pankration would've been more entertaining.

Nothing would top a large mass of surly, nude, Greek men covered in oil.

It should be like the wrestling in ancient Greece - the men should be oiled (lubed?) up and naked.

Then the Summer Games should be held in Moscow.
