I know the IOC is awful, but let's say the Olympics are held in Athens every year and everyone needs to take trains to get there. Team USA can ride on an empty cargo ship returning to China and take trains from there.
I think lacrosse should be included again, and the indigenous peoples of the Americas should represent themselves so they can embarrass the ivy league Team USA lacrosse team.
Here's my idea: every 4 years, they should invent a new sport for the Olympics. The rules of that sport aren't revealed until the first day of the Olympics, and the games aren't played until the final day. The teams for the new sport have to be made up of athletes from the other events. If the sport is cool and people like it, it gets to come back at the next Olympics
