Yeah, it's less than a month way. 
I kinda like all of the events in the olympics. When there are no events, I'm usually fixated on just one sport like boxing or volleyball, but in the olympics, I watch 'em all.
I do find myself watching a few events more than everything else. I usually watch track & field more than the others. Then my next preference would be either swimming or boxing. Hope this year's olympics would be a blast! Take care!

I love to watch track and field, manly because I do it. To me it is also the funnest to lookk at, but I really like to watch everything but track and field is a cant miss for me. My second favorite is swimming. i dont know why but I have somehow grew fond of it.

Hi summerrain. I used to watch the swimming a lot in the past and i may watch it again, but it lost a lot of appeal when they changed the rules, so the records were not really comparable. I will watch the track and field events like most people around the world. The basketball is interesting, but not as good as it was the year that the first US Dream team took part. I have always been a great fan of gymnastics, but the best days are long past. The boxing and the weightlifting are events that I would watch during the olympics, but otherwise not. Lastly I would add the rowing events.

wow,you like so many sports.and I think you may like all these sports more in the past than nowadays,right?It seems that you considered they are less interesting and wonderful than before because of the changed rules.But in my opinion,there will be more and more people involved in the Olympic Games,and the rules will become more normative than before,and the Olympic Games should be more wonderful,and will attract more eyes.
hope you enjoy this summer's Olympic Game,all the best to you!

Hi,
Yes it can be that I like a lot of the record holders of the past. I started watching the Olympics in 1976 and I did see Nadia Comeneci get the first perfect 10. Nadia is one of the Olympic legends. The atmosphere was much more exciting back then because of the intense competition between the USSR, DDR, America and Romania. A lot of the rules were changed, especially in swimming, because the Olympic Committee were trying to make the sports faster and simultaneously wipe out the records of the past. I do not agree with that... However, you made one point which is very true and that is that there is a much greater variety of sport and I am very happy that tennis is back, that professional basketball players can compete and that sports like rhythmic gymnastics are allowed.
Have a good week.

I'm usually the only person I know who gets into the Olympics. I don't know why, even growing up my family didn't care about watching them. Well, they did the 1996 Olympics because Shannon Miller was from our state and she won gold in gymnastics.
The events I will be watching include: gymnastics, swimming (I hope the 41 year old woman does well), diving, and track and field. Gymnastics is probably my favorite. I went to the summer Olympics in Sydney in 2000. I got tickets (I won a contest) to a USA basketball game, field hockey, and track and field.

wow,you are a sports fan,I think.and you are so lucky for having gone to the real Olympic venues to watch the games.though I am interested in Olympics,I watch the sports just in front of the televison,never want to buy a ticket for that,so expensive,I think.
hope you enjoy this summer's Olympic games!
