I for one, am super excited about the Olympics coming up. None of my family and friends are, LOL, so I was hoping there would be some peeps on here that are.

My fave events are swimming, track and field, and gymnastics, in that order.

I admit I'm taking a few days off work during Olympic week to really get into it and watch all my events!

Anyone else excited? Who are your athletes? What sports do you like?

PS my fave athlete is Ryan Lochte, swimming. I can't wait to cheer him on when he beats Michael Phelps :wink:

    I love the Olympics!!

    I'm excited for gymnastics, tennis and swimming. I've loved Phelps since the Athens games and actually got to meet him! Soo I'll still cheer him on! :)

    I always get excited about it when it comes on. I love the opening ceremonies especially. It is really neat to actually visit the venues in person. The only one I've visited is Lake Placid. It feels so special being there.

    AAAHHHH I am so excited!

    My favorite sports are gymnastics (including rhythmic) and diving, but I will literally watch any sport if it's an Olympic event. And I will cry and cry at every medal ceremony, regardless of who wins. I just have so much respect for the athletes.
