Olympics 2012

Any body watching?

[gigi]

Yes! Love it!

[Lilith]

What sports are you loving? Can someone explain the basketball/ soccer with hands/ court game????

[gigi]

Beach Volleyball, Swimming. Not overly fond of water polo as that just seems to be "let's all try not to die today" and Track and Field. Although I am a huge basketball fan I feel like we occasionally stack the deck and am not a rah rah cheerleader for it.

The Olympic site is less than 25 miles from my house. Of course I'm watching!!!!! The roads outside my house have been shut for 2 days for the men's and women's cycle race. I have tickets for the diving on Monday!! :-) I have Olympic fever!! Lol

I gave up on the Olympics when it went from "Fred Smith from Australia" to "Fred Smith for Australia". And Fred's not the only one.

[Lilith]

True OF. I hate that too.

I like a lot of the non-"mainstream" sports: archery, tae kwon do, fencing. Been watching a lot of volleyball, though. And there's a lot of pretty grace to swimming. Not all that interested in basketball, and diving events are boring in the extreme.

[Lord Snow]

I like the archery as well gg. Just haven't been watching this year.

Any body watching?

On reflection, yes I have been watching some bodies.

I wasn't able to get into it until I had the proper Irish commentator bring it all to life for me.

I suspect we have found a new playground for when Pixies site is down.
