    Women's Gymnastics. Have to cover my eyes when they do flips in the air!

    Soccer. Nick used to play.

    Basketball because DH watches. I only peek in every once in a while.

    How about Ledeka? What a swim. Or Simone, sheer perfection. And can she fly! And Phelps with a 3 way silver tie. And gold taken by a young man he had his photo taken with years ago. I am not good with names. But I love the sports. Marta from Brazil, she gave it her all. Anthony Erwin, retired for 8 years and coming back to win gold again.

    I have to admit that Simone really impressed me with her journey. To lose her mom to drugs, be adopted by her grandparents. And then have a combination move named after her. I often wonder how children under those circumstances do in the long term. Well she is an inspiration to us all. And her team mate Ally, she was flying all the way to silver.

    You are way more into it than I am. I watch the highlights on my computer and listen for DH to cheer or yell from the other room!!

    Chris I am cheering with your DH! I just am so amazed at the effort all these athletes give. I missed the ice skaters. I really love the way they dance on it. :(

    I am in awe the way they flip into the air. My heart beats faster every time! :blush:
