Point taken...that's why I don't get to make the distinction. I would amend my statement to clarify that while not the only criteria, these are essential. Billiards...better than ice dancing in my opinion. Either it went in the pocket or it didn't. Now pole dancing...one more purely subjective "sport" where the score is not a measurable value, but subject to the whims of the judges. If pole dancing actually makes it, the Olympics will be greatly diminished. Of course, finding enough amateurs who have never danced professionally could kill the whole idea anyway.
