I would wake up a little happier everyday if I could see squash in the Olympics. It is an utter disgrace that such athleticism has had to sit on the back-burner, while sports like badminton take the stage. Help make this world right!

squash needs to be in the Olympics NOT TENNIS. it makes no sense to have the Olympics in a sport that has it's own gage of Ultimate winner 4 times a year as in the Majors. Now Squash needs the exposer to save it and build it's popularity if it had an ultimate goal.
