Olympics and Ballroom is a pipe dream. Whoever tried to push this one forward just didn't think it through. For instance, if Brian Watson were to compete who would he dance with. It wouldn't be Carmen she's German and he is a South African. Do you think that for one momment a couple are going to break up a partnership for a possible Olympic Medal. I'll leave it for you to figure out how many other snags there are. One would be that the Professional controlling body are in opposition to the Amateur controlling body. Even if they ever get together there is still the nationality problem. Other than that the competition would be sub standard. Lets forget it and come back into the real world..
