Holy cheese, Bat-Man! Isn't there already a thread to the 2012 Olympics? Even though it's not about softball or karate, would it fit better in there?

I always presumed that baseball and softball were generally american sports, so many of the other countrys didn't play it. But that is my assumption, I've just never heard of base/soft -ball outside the US [except rounders but that's a different sport entirely
].
I think karate should have been kept in, but it's unfair. If karate is allowed, other martial arts should be allowed in too.
I don't actually think that anything should've been dropped. The figures speak for themselves.

Dropping the two sports will remove 16 teams and more than 300 athletes from the Olympics.

300+ people will be out of a job. But saying that, it's from only 2 sports.
Life goes on.
