Olympics--NOT about scheduling :)

Which Olympic events are you guys watching besides the equestrian events?

I'm enjoying the swimming (yeah, I'm a Phelps phan), diving, gymnatics (women's), beach volleyball, and waiting for track & field to start.

Update:

AM Boss Tom Cat: That 4x100 was AMAZING! Most exciting thing I've seen so far.

    the swimming (mens/ womens) (did you see the relay??? that was AMAZING!!! gold #2 for phelps), beach volleyball (mens/ womens... cuba was absolutely DEMOLISHING holland womens), gymnastics, i have yet to see the diving. i want to see how pingpong goes for china.

  • Only caught day 1 of the dressage so far, but was really impressed with Australia. Otherwise the swimming & gymnastics when I can catch them.

    I did see the GREAT 4x100m men's freestyle (I think it was) last night. That was an exciting one to watch, especially after the French were mouthing off about smashing the Americans. Team USA sure made them eat those words......

    ADD: Yeah, it had me standing up & cheering them on for sure!

    Well, I don't have cable or satellite anymore so am at the mercy of what they show on the regular NBC station. So far I've seen a little men's water polo, women's beach volleyball, men's diving in pairs, and swimming.

    well, i cant watch the horse parts of it(dont seem to have the station they play those on), and i seem to only be catching the team sports like scoccer and such, too bad american team is out(at least that's what i heard or some team they were expecting in the top 3 is out... i wasnt watching too closely, just had it on the tv while answering horse questions hehe)

    i'd watch more, but all the things i like i seem to miss so i just randomly turn it on to watch whatever events are on usa station.

    edit: i watched the women's lifting...OMG those chicks are freakin strong! like scary strong. hehe, china won that event. the girl just walked up lifted that dead weight like it was nothing.

    edit: i'm just gonna add this here, but do i have my own private stocker who goes to all my answers and thumbs down me?? hehe, this is the second opinion question i've answered and got thumbs down for no real reason...and i've been a good girl today and played nice with the other kiddies

    I'd have to say that I like them all! It's fun to watch people that know what they are doing play a sport.

    But my favorite is the equestrian events! Though I havn't got to watch the first show.

    go USA! =D

    I like diving, gymnastics and white water rafting personally. Other than that I find swimming and stuff a little boring.
