So every 4 years it seems every ultimate player look at the Olympics and says "What if Ultimate was an Olympic Sport"? We have discussed this before at the BUB mansion and there is always mixed responses. See here
My personal opinion is that sports at the Olympics should hold an Olympic title at a higher level than any other competition. Sports like tennis and soon to be golf tend to be over shadowed by major open tournament titles. This is in contrast to other sports such as Athletics, Swimming etc. where there athletes strive even to just compete at the Olympics let alone medal.
How would an Olympic title be seen compare to a world championship? Would we still have a world champs? These questions are just theoretical as there are many hurdles before we become an olympic sport, but I like to dream.
