Bowling. I fake I know what I'm doing for 28 weeks every year.So, what sport do u guys think would be easiest for the “average person”to fake their way through and look respectable to the casual fan? I’m gonna say baseball. Pray the ball doesn’t get hit to you and if doesn’t your halfway home. If you can make your swing look beautiful it doesn’t matter if you go 0 for 4. Hell… lots of people go 0 fer….
Dressage has been in the Olympics since 1912. It's no joke. It takes years of training and incredible talent to do what they do. Good luck faking dressage. A horse will own you in seconds. It's also one of the higher rated events in the Olympics. Equestrian is always in the top 10.Horse dressage or horse dancing. What a joke. Ribbon twirling
Maybe you know: how the heck do they teach a horse to do that stuff?Dressage has been in the Olympics since 1912. It's no joke. It takes years of training and incredible talent to do what they do.

It starts with ground training. Teaching flexion. It's about teaching a horse to respond to pressure, and handle massive cheering crowds without losing their mind. All power and movement comes from the hind end. Legs and seat of the rider dictate each individual leg of the horse. Dressage is based upon military movements from the battlefield, centuries ago in Greece, then Europe.Maybe you know: how the heck do they teach a horse to do that stuff?
Lol. I just knew it was coming from somewhere. Should have known it would be you...Those who try to fake dressage -- known as oranges?
Some jokes write themselves.Lol. I just knew it was coming from somewhere. Should have known it would be you...
I don't even know what you were joking about. Orange?Some jokes write themselves.
Oh, I bet you do.I don't even know what you were joking about. Orange?
yeah, these ain't nose-to-butt horses that you take on a trail ride in a national park. they're 1000 pound animals that don't speak a lick of English.Dressage has been in the Olympics since 1912.

Watch the women's today, very impressive.Isn't rock climbing a new thing now? Give me a couple shots and I can fall off a cliff like the best of 'em.
And the climbing was good too …Watch the women's today, very impressive.
Actually, I think I've got this one covered, although my experience may mean I'm above average.Isn't rock climbing a new thing now? Give me a couple shots and I can fall off a cliff like the best of 'em.
We didn't say you have to win.They were discussing this on Philly sports radio the other day. The consensus was “speed walking”. Until someone pointed out the world record for a mile is about 4:30.
I’ve been in a bobsled. It’s no picnic.We didn't say you have to win.
How about bobsledding? In think the Jamacans did it without ever seeing snow before they competed.
Hopefully the Cornhole tour will be stopping in the HV next April. Only appropriate with all the training that takes place in the parking lots n the fall!yeah, these ain't nose-to-butt horses that you take on a trail ride in a national park. they're 1000 pound animals that don't speak a lick of English.
As to my selection of sport with least grade between average joe and olympian, I'm gonna go with curling. But, we could have a new challenger in the not too distant future....
The next great Olympic sport? It could be cornhole
The Tokyo Olympics saw six new sports. It's on "The Ocho" in 2023, but by the 2028 or 2032 Olympic Games, could cornhole be a medal-worthy sport? It's all part of the world domination plan.www.espn.com
Hopefully i will be dead before this ever happens. It was bad enough going to the Greenbrier early in the year and finding that they were hosting the American Cornhole Association MidAtlantic Regionals. COVID obviously proved that in the hotel industry, cash flow is king.
I thought your experience was in tree stand falling?Actually, I think I've got this one covered, although my experience may mean I'm above average.
That could be an olympic event!I thought your experience was in tree stand falling?
2 point deduction for sticking the landing?That could be an olympic event!
“Fallin’ ain’t much of a climbin’, boy.”I thought your experience was in tree stand falling?

USA Olympic wrestling medals by year:
2021 — 9 (NLWC 5)
2016 — 3
2012 — 5

2004 — 6
2000 — 7
1996 — 8
1992 — 8
1988 — 6
1984 — 13
1984 also comes with a huge asterisk since Russia boycotted that year. All things considered, I think it's easy to say that this year was the best performance of any US Olympic wrestling team.Might be helpful to include total number of events/weights. There used to be 20, now there are 18.
Also, since 1996 the Soviet talent has been spread around.1984 also comes with a huge asterisk since Russia boycotted that year. All things considered, I think it's easy to say that this year was the best performance of any US Olympic wrestling team.
One must successfully climb the mount to fall from it.“Fallin’ ain’t much of a climbin’, boy.”
