I'm not to excited about flag football.  It'll be great athletes doing athletic stuff, but it's a far cry from what I know as football.  I don't even watch the Pro Bowl Games anymore as they really don't mean anything.

I don't think BJJ gets into the Olympics.  There was talk of getting rid of Wrestling.  The problem with the Olympics now is it has become a vehicle for NBC to sell advertising and drive the eyeball numbers.  If it doesn't rate, then they'd rather pull it, regardless of whether or not the sport is a highly competitive traditional sport.  Dropping sports like wrestling and weightlifting would be a huge mistake in my eyes, as those sports have the basis for international competition for a long time.

Pro Bowl isn’t interesting to me anymore; so boring.

BJJ in the Olympics?!? No. Getting rid of wrestling and weightlifting would be a mistake because they’re both tradition for as long as I can remember. Doesn’t mean that the IOC will replace wrestling and/or weightlifting, but one will never know. 

Flag football?!? For an Olympic athlete caliber?!? Change is inevitable but give me a break.
