I think the problem is specifically with ISAF. The IOC issued certian guidelines as to the growth and commitment that they wanted to see from each of the 28 sports that are represented in the Olympics. ISAF spent a great deal of time outlining their stategy for the future, and then went the opposite direction from their outline. we all know what, why and how this happened so no point in regurgitating this again. I do want to read the follow up reports on the article that began this thread, but have not seen anything else posted yet.
