How can anyone hate Chess? It's the greatest board game ever invented. A game fit for Kings. Wars have been decided on a chessboard.

I would scrap Football in his current form and replace it with Futsal.

For those you said Golf is in the next Olympics, is it going to be a normal 4 day event, match play or Ambrose style event? I quite like the last 2 formats I suggested.

Also, just for a random sport to be added, I'll go with Orienteering. Reckon an event featuring navigational skills having to run, bike and canoe around a course could be quite fun.

It's monotonous in the extreme. Royalty also play croquet and polo. Chess still looks ****e in comparison.

Hahaha wtf? Chess isn't a spectator sport, no one gives a **** how it looks on TV.
