5 reasons why I just can't take the Olympics seriously anymore.

• Synchronized Swimming (History of the World , Part 1 not withstanding)
• Handball (what, no Dodgeball?)
• Trampoline (does this require a comment?)
• Table Tennis (where is the Foosball?)
• Badminton (now, if it were Lawn Darts, I'd be all over it.)

No to mention every "sport" that requires judging.  What a mess.  They now allow slow-motion reply of the gymnastic sets for the judges.  Seriously?  How about something simple like if you can't stick you're landing, go home.

When the Opening Ceremonies are the best part of the games, they have finally jumped the shark.
