Should X Games be Olympic Sports?

[ig-88]

Snowboarding was added in 1998 as a Winter Olympic sport.

How about stuff like skateboards, BMX bikes, etc. on half-pipes?

Or the thing where the guy stands on a BMX bike and bounces it around?

Or the thing where skateboarders go down handrails near office buildings, etc.?

Maybe they could set up fake buildings, complete with annoyed adults walking around.

bmx is part of these olympics i believe.its just the dirt track races and not the freestyle.

BMX biking is in the Olympics, they added it this year. I hate the Olympics, it is petty nationalism, stupid sports and hypocrisy. Lets go team handball team! And giant women rowers! And four foot tall gymnasts! They should not waste tax money on this crap.

That's the thing, people actually care about hockey, so the players make money that is given more or less voluntarily. As opposed to the Olympics, where freaks choose stupid sports that nobody plays, and get welfare to do it. I know tons of children that play soccer, baseball, etc. And even some that do track. But who knows people that do syncro-diving, or modern pentathlon, or team hand-ball, or crap like that? Not me. I should stop ranting now.
