Why not auto-x as an Olympic sport? The clocks don't lie. Bowling? Highest score wins. Golf? Lowest score. Pool...first to win a designated number of games wins. All have NO politically motivated judges involved. Sure referees can make bad calls, but with large audiences, not as likely.
Like Basketball making USA the smart bet, if pool was ever part of the games, put your money on the Philippines.. There are 12 year olds there who play world class level. A 16 year old Philippino girl entered the Northwest BCA championships tourney. Worry not, she was well guarded & chaperoned. She laid waste to the women's division, beating former WPBA champ Allison Fisher 9 to 3. In the men's top division, finished 2nd behind USA pro (ranked #2 among USA players) Mike Dechaine, aka "The pain from Maine". He barely beat her in a thrilling hill-hill (both had 8 games won) match.
Kids there must be given cues instead of teething rings...
