As some of you might know, 4 years ago they decided that this year would be the last year that they would have Olympic baseball and softball in the Olympics. They are definitely not having it in 2012, however, there is a chance it could be back in 8 years for the 2016 Olympics.
What are some reasons they should bring the 2 sports back, and what are some reasons that they should not bring the 2 sports back in 2016?

It's a team sport isn't it....well you could say it brings out the comradely in most people...and it's somewhat fun to watch.
could also argue that those two sport involve several countries.
Doesn't pull the crowds as they used to, it's an obscure sport, I guess.
I really haven't the foggest.

Baseball and Softball are American sports that swept the many countries, much more than, say, sychronized diving or swimming, or sailing of the sorts (no offense to those people,I could never do it, but come one. Diving over baseball?)
other hand, baseball is not as popular EVERYWHERE, where as for some odd reason you see diving teams in places like Russia...

Yeah they should have sotball and basebell back! They are such healthy and competitve sports! Why did they get get rid of them in the first place? They are very good sports for all to be able to play. And also something you can train for easily. Getting Feilds, I mean. Training is very hard, I think.
