I'm excited.  Have the Olympics channel on now.  

 

Do you realize how great it is, to be able to work hard for this dream and get to go and participate.  We can kind of live through them.

 

I love the floor gymnastics that the girls do.  Man the muscles in their legs are huge on some of them.  Like the ice skaters who compete around the race track.

 

Will you be watching and what ones do you just love to see? 

Hope and pray, all goes well for them.  Safely.

Re: One week to the Olympics!

I can’t think of any I don’t like, but my favorites are skiing of any kind and curling.  I’ll be watching as much as I can. I really enjoy the background stories of these athletes, too.

Re: One week to the Olympics!

Figure skating is my favorite winter event and gymnastics is my favorite summer event. Hope the Americans do well in the figure skating events.

Re: One week to the Olympics!

I love watching just about all of it. Especially the skating and, in particular, the ice dancing. 


Why is it, when I have a 50/50 guess at something, I'm always 100% wrong?

Another figure skating fan here.  As a target shooter I also enjoy a rather obscure event called the biathalon.

Re: One week to the Olympics!

Thank you for the reminder.  I'm so happy Matt Lauer won't be hosting this year.  I haven't heard who is replacing him, but Katie Couric will co-host the Opening Ceremonies

It's called "NBCSN" on my cable lineup.
