golf is a sport for senior citizens that have problems with their weight and mobilitymaybe it can be part of special olympics?

I don't think you can quite grasp how much flexibility you have to have to play.

Seriously, Cricket.  I'm an American, with absolutely no interest in it, but I work in IT, and I see the frenzy that many of my East Asian colleagues get into when world tournaments are going on with India in the mix.  The India/Pakistan games literally shut down IT departments.

Given that England is the birthplace of the sport, the # of countries where it is played - Australia, the Carribean, Europe, and India/Pakistan/Sri Lanka, you could get a lot of eyeballs watching the matches, and the Olympics is all about how many are watching so they can sell to advertisers.  Also given the growing East Asian population in the U.S., again you have very high viewership.

It's a demonstration sport in the London games in 2012.

I think because of 20/20 it will become more popular and easier to watch for those not so interested.
