Should there be Olympic foootball? Peyton Manning thinks so, so do I

Hi guys, I am stunned each Olympics that there is no football in the Olympics. Here is a great petition created by Payton Manning, sign it and if we get enough signatures we can get football into the Olympics.

Already 12615 signatures!

This is one of the few things you've said in this forum that I agree on.

All these Olympic team sports were way more interesting during the cold war when the best players in the world were not allowed to come to the US to all play together. But really, this has no hope of ever being a competitive Olympic sport. The key word there is competitive. I won't sign it because as big of a football fan as I am, I won't watch it.

LOL. I'm not even sure a country besides the US could put a team together.

Football is incredibly popular in Ukraine, according to Wikipedia football is the most popular sport in Ukraine.

Check the UFAF Ukrainian Federation of American Football.

So we can have another pro Olympic sport where the multimillionaires pass on playing for fear of injury?
