And should the US boycott them if they dont reinstate them. I know it was because nobody in Europe plays baseball but without the U.S's advertising money the olympics arent nearly as big.

I wish they hadn't too. Look at the World Baseball Classic --- it was a great idea but if the players can't get excited then why bother. The pro teams were not real cooperative and the colleges can't put together a competitive team.

Baseball was an olympic sport when the games where held in the USA this is because the host nation is allowed to choose a couple of extra sports related to their country.
