Saintsfan Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 I personally don't think baseball has any future in the games, whether or not the US hosts it. I suspect 2024 will be in the Americas somewhere, though don't discount the idea of an African games by then, or even Middle East. Cape Town would be an awesome host city. 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosrs1 Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 @pmoehrinIts Not if but when in my opinion for 2022 World Cup Qatar is in WAY over there heads with this oneFrankly I'm looking forward to seeing how completely they can it up and what they do with dozen massive stadiums they have no use for.They're dismantling many of them and sending the scraps off to other countries. Supposedly.Sure, because pieces of used stadiums are what 3rd world countries really need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiddySicks Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 People spotted leaving a boardroom with enormous bags of money.How I'd run baseball in the Olympics is a real cart-before-horse thing to me. I suppose I would start by establishing grassroots programs in countries where baseball hasn't yet made the inroads it could make, and then I'd come back in about 30 years and see if it's yet become a sufficiently international sport befitting its greatness.Well, FWIW, they are at least attempting that throughout Europe by establishing some pretty successful baseball academies. I know Italy, for one, has several of them. On 11/19/2012 at 7:23 PM, oldschoolvikings said: She’s still half convinced “Chris Creamer” is a porn site.)

evanmaldonado Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 I wouldn't put baseball back into the olympics. It was way too irrelevant to bother with. The world's top players wouldn't be playing in it (particularly the US squad), so what's the point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
