Seriously? No thread yet? Really?

Oh well anyways yeah I've been watching a little bit here and there. Also, Micheal Phelps now has the most gold medals ever won, and hes not even done yet, still has a bunch of competitions left to do.

I honestly can't stand the olympics.
I just can't pay attention while watching people swim and run laps, throw stuff, or anything else.
The only things I can stand are basketball and gymnastics.

yeah I have been watching a lot. The judges seem a little biased towards the chinese in womens gymnastics. Giving them pretty high scores for messing up. Same thing happened in prelims

Ive noticed the same thing a bit in the boxing matches. Ive been following medal count, so far the Chinese have the most gold, but we are leading in total medal count.

And basketball really shouldn't even be an olympic sport. It should be called "America rapes every one and gets medals, YAY!" *rolls eyes*

I enjoy watching the Olympics, I was / sort of still am a runner so I enjoy watching those guys. I've met the Marathon silver medalist multiple times, he is an awesome guy haha

This time around I've been watching Gymnastics more and it's pretty damn fun to watch. I wish Soccer in the Olympics was better but many clubs hold on to their best players now that the season is starting.

Phelps is just incredible....he is beating records by like 4 sec. which is huge for swimming. I have been watching so much more of this years olympics because of this guy he is just so cool to watch.
