Baseball, Softball, Lacrosse, and Cricket seem to be on the roster for new Olympic Sports in 2028. Break Dancing is not coming back in 2028.

What the … that’s it, I’m boycotting the Summer Olympics for the next 4 years.

But lacrosse will be there!

Hope the I.O.C. permits the Haudenosaunee to participate even if it means Canada getting bumped. There does not appear to be the risk of setting a precedent because of the uniqueness of the situation.

Swimming is going to be exciting. Katie Ledecky recently broke her 9 year old WR in the 800m, then Summer McIntosh set world records in the 200 IM and 400 free, and put up the 3rd fastest 800m of all time.

I’d be extremely surprised to see it happen, but I’d love to see a Haudenosaunee flag in the parade of nations.

And Summer just set her third world record in 5 days beating her own 400 IM time. I thought she might have difficulty maintaining the level of her last Olympics but apparently not. She owns the IM.
