    Olympics are here and was wondering what your favorite event is and who you're pulling for....Mine is the Decathalon...what can be a better test of all around athletic ability???My favorites ar the U.S. of course, Sweden and Russia because of my heritage....I think it'll be interesting to see everyones favorite events. :smt023
     
  2. Being a runner, I'm definately interested in the Track And Field events, mainly the 5K, 10K, and the marathon. :smt023

    Also, soccer interests me just because it's so huge the world over.

    slightly on the topic, has anyone ever been to the Olympics, or even seen the torch pass through their town or anything? I remember seeing the torch go through Eugene Oregon for the Winter 2002 Olympics, that was really really cool. ^__^

    When I was a child I used to love the long Jump so I'll go for that.

    I saw a shitload of tourists for the 2000 Nagano Olympics, and even more for the World Cup 2 years later.

    The Winter Olympics were held in my city in 1988. I remember it quite well.
