Guest JMT Posted August 12 Report Share Posted August 12 this year's has been somewhat overshadowed by iraq, terror threats and greece's construction setbacks. personally, i like the olympics (summer and winter). i always enjoyed watching as a kid and still do. ill watch pretty much any event (except synchrnized swimming and twirling). i appreciate the competition and the grandeur. its the culmination for people who have dedicated years of their lives to compete in something they enjoy (not for money except in basketball's case) and have their dreams made or dashed in less than a second. every event always has some athletes with interesting back-stories. its human emotion at its purest.what do you think?

Guest Cosmigonon Posted August 12 Report Share Posted August 12 I don't really care that much, I mean, if I never ever watch gymnastics, why should I watch them now, like a lot of people do; they never care about swimming competititons, and then you'll find them glued to the TV watching them, come on. The only competition I really watch and look forward to is Futbol. ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LeVeL Posted August 12 Report Share Posted August 12 I love the Olympics too, I personally cant wait to see the Track and Field and Mens swimming competition. The soccer is going to be great to see too by the way. I cant wait to watch the Opening Ceremonies that will be great to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryan2772 Posted August 12 Report Share Posted August 12 i love the olympics. one thing i really got into in the winter olympics was curling. such a simple and silly-looking concept, but so intense!for summer, i'm a big fan of beach volleyball, long jump, pole vault, water polo, table tennis, weightlifting, throwing events (javelin, discus, hammer), and kayak slalom.did you know there's a "handball" event??? shit, i'll check it out! ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
