See the discussion in the Olympics thread about breaststroke vs. butterfly stroke, or freestyle vs. anything else.

A couple of the sports that are applying for instatement are golf and 7-on-7 rugby. I'm not sure how good a television sport raquetball is (haven't watched it on TV), but 7-on-7 rugby and golf would both be great.
