Should Flag Football be in the Olympics?

There has been some conversation about flag football being in the Olympics. It is official now in 2028 there will be flag football in the Olympics. I think this is great and it gets the name of football out there to everyone.

 

Football has always been an American sport for the most part. They have football in other countries but it is not as big as it is in America. I think that flag football in the Olympics is good to get the name of the sport out there. Since football is such an American sport I think that there will be no competition for America. I am going to like watching America play football against other countries though. It seems a lot of people are on board with this being in the Olympics but they think that it is going to be a smoke show with America winning it all. 

 

In the end, I think that this is a great idea for many reasons. The name of the sport is getting out there, it is going to add spice to the Olympics and get to see how American football compares to other countries.

 

Do you think there should be flag football in the Olympics?

 

Who do you think will win the flag football in the Olympics?

 

Do you think that a lot of NFL stars will do it?

  • Love the topic! Good job overall Dallas. I would like to see your summary a bit longer and be sure to reply back on three different days.

  • I think that flag football should be an olympic sport that is on the less serious side. All of the other sports are so serious because people are competing for so much and they have put so much work into their event. Flag football would be a little more fun to watch, and to play for them.

  • I think flag football should be in the olympics becuase it would be something different and maybe something fun to watch maybe. And you might get more people to play it cuase you wont get hurt as much 

  • I personally do not think that flag football should be in the olympics. Although it would be cool, I don't think many people will have much interest in it. I think that if it was in the olympics that some NFL starts would play just to have fun.

  • I honestly do not think flag football should be in the olympics because i don't think it is something very many people would be interest in and would not want to watch. Personally, I do not think that a lot of NFL players would do it.

  • I personally do not think flag football should be included in the olympics, although it sounds like a very cool idea. I personally do not know who would win flag football in the olympics, and I think maybe some NFL players would play in the sport because it sounds fun. 

  • I think it would be cool to have flag football in the Olympics but it might not work as well as the other sports because they are well known where flag football isn't a big thing . Otherwise I think it's a good idea. 

  • I think it would be really cool to have flag football in the olympics. Flag football is lot different then normal football in many ways and it would be very quick pace which I think would be fun to watch.

  • I do not think that flag football should become an olympic sport. One reason for this is that football, let alone flag football is not extremely popular in other countries around the world. I also belive that there are enough sports in the olympics currently. For those reasons I believe flag football should not be in the olympics.

  • I think that america will take gold easily because there will be some nobody that trys to guard tyreek hill and for people that dont know football he is on of the fastest players of all time and patrick mahoiome who won a superbowl his first year as a starter and hase been to the last 3 or 4 superbowls.
