It's been decided now that starting in 2012 baseball & softball will no longer be olympic sports.

Reason given for softball is that it's not popular enough.
Reasons given for baseball is that MLB doesn't send players to the olympics & the whole steroids issue.

If the IOC is worried  about steroids than why don't they drop track & field from the olympics?

Some people think that this is anti-American becasue those are 2 sports usually won by Americans.

Rumoured replacments for baseball & softball are:
rugby
kirate
rollerblading
golf
Just to name a few

you forgot squash lol

MLB is having the World Tourney next year arent they?

Japan doesn't want to be a part of it & teams like the Yankees won't send any players

Yeah, rollerblading, golf, & rugby are the 3 ideas that have come up to replace softball & baseball in the Olympics.
