When I first heard about this I got mad. I thought to myself "Pole dancing? They are going to take something I watch every Saturday night and Wednesday afternoon and make it an Olympic sport? What a mockery of the Olympics!"  Then I remembered curling. And Bad mitten. And the fact that the U.S. actually has to play Basketball against other countries. The Olympics have been a joke for a long time. So screw it. Let's see some naked ladies dance around on poles and we need to get some serious judges. If they do this, again, it needs to be American Idol format. The judges can't be like they are in the gymnastics and ice dancing. We need to hear from them. I want some jerk calling out the girls and their performance. Priceless. Oh yeah, and before you get on your high horse talking about the sexual nature of pole dancing, just watch these ice dancers. Half the time they're humping air. Now, that's neither the routine my girl Shannon Leigh used to do or does she teach her students that. But we all know it's out there.
