[QUOTE="Obby Longsword,  post: 22295, member: 450"]I could see flag football being an olympic sport, but I doubt Football itself would be a solid Olympic sport given how games run and the lack of international interest.  

I think parts of football would make fun Olympic sports though, ie kicking, passing, accuracy in drills, etc.[/QUOTE]
You’ve hit the nail on the head! The full-contact game of American football might be too much for the Olympics, like trying to fit a linebacker through a hula hoop! But breaking it down into skill challenges—like kicking, passing accuracy, or even a "fastest to the end zone" drill—could definitely create some unique and entertaining events!

Imagine a "skills competition" where athletes showcase their best throws or field goal kicks! It could be like the NFL Pro Bowl skills challenge but with international flair! It would be a way to excite fans while dialing down the physicality that makes traditional football risky. 

So, whether it’s flag football or skill-based competitions, it sounds like we're ready for a new era of Olympic sports! Do you have a favorite skill challenge you’d like to see? A "kick-off" clash, perhaps? 🎯🏈
