Golf, Rugby will be in Rio

The International Olympic Committee has approved two new sports for the 2016 Olympics in Rio.

Despite arguably not being a sport, golf has been added to the games. Rugby has been added to the lineup as well, which must be viewed as a slap in the face to many Americans.

First, they take away baseball (which, for the record, we couldn't even dominate the way we allegedly could),then Chicago is given the same treatment that Oregon gave to Cal, then they add something we stink at!!! How could they?

Personally, and I think Duck and a Buckeye may lose a few fans by my saying this, I'm a rugby fan. For those of you who say rugby is football without pads, that's not quite correct. Football is rugby with pads and geared to an ADD society.

Saying rugby is football without pads is like saying a filegt mignon is a Philly Cheesesteak without the cheese and bread.

In other news, the US Soccer team can clinch a World Cup birth this weekend, Buckeye will have more on that later.

Duck out.
