I would insist, nay, demand that ladies fair be in attendance waving colorful handkerchiefs.
That would include baseball. There's enough nations that a World Cup for baseball can be mounted. I don't have a problem with the addition of skateboarding or whatever, but it's an odd omission. You'd think the inclusion would promote the sport internationally.
I have no idea how cricket played except you can call people a sticky wicket, but I'd be more likely to tune into that. Same for rugby.
