DTE?

Looking forward to south korean archery, always fun.

Cons: Having major surgery

Pros; means I can't go outside, so can screw up sleep schedule for olympics.

Kinda pissed Sweden's men's football team didn't qualify, but I'm all the more happy for the women's.

As an English man I can safely say I'm not too excited for this

Though as long as BMX is on I don't care...the only thing I actually enjoy watching because of the crashes

Always love the Olympics. As an Aussie we've had so much success over the last few olympics but I fear we won't do that well this time around. Still won't stop me watching lots of it though, even the most random sports at the olympics can capture my interest

love the summer olympics(winter olympics are lame), specially track and field events and swimming. Also football, and gymnastics. Hoping Canada gets a few medals.

Weightlifting I am SUPER excited for. Anyone who ever chills in the TLHF forum should be super excited. Personally I just want to see Klokov set a record or two in snatch and overall.

I'm always interested in running and swimming, always hoping to see a record broken there, and besides that cycling will be pretty cool, and gymnastics is so impressive to watch.

Well I'm in korea now so it doesnt affect me...I just don't agree with the way the money has been spent and how a majority has come from tax payers money to yet further the development of London.

Help to develop the rest of the country....why not have the cycling in manchester or the MTB in wales...they're world class facilities no need to make new ones that will rarely be used after the games

Basketball kinda gives me bad vibes. It's odd having superstar millionaires (at least on the US team and some others) along with the other Olympians who have devoted their entire life to their 1 shot in London. The guys on the basketball team care more about selling shoes than winning Gold. Michael Jordan famously draped himself in the American flag, not because he was proud, but to cover the Reebok logo on his jersey. MJ was a Nike man, afterall.

I am looking forward to most of the non-major sports.

Imo sports like football, golf and tennis dont even belong at the Olympics.

The olympic flame thing in Olympia was a complete parody taking place while the Greek socioeconomic crisis was in full swing with the elections. Also in the op's pic the left girl is lady stark.
