favorite olympic sport and why....

Rockiemalt

seeing as we've got no phantom to listen to what better way to spend it than watching the olympics...

I like the diving off high diving boards when they do all mad twisty things

I also like the gymnastics, the one on the big flat mat where they got across it from one corner to another cause i always wanted to be able to do it..

bec

i love the drug tests..........every1 is a winner with those!!

Creature

Swimming because I find it very interesting to watch and Gymnastics because the intricate movements and routines are very captivating.



Though I'll watch all the events really, they're all good.

Amz

Swimming, Athletics and Rowing.
They'e the three sports I've always been most heavily involved in.

*shrug*

That's all I have to say about that.

i don't really like watching any sports... i thought i'd like the judo... but it looks like two 6 year old kids fighting... so i don't like any of it

Down in a hole

Judo is not akin to children fightin!I've done it for over 10 years and there is nothing in it that is comparable to children at play.It's a very intense and competitive sport!

Tyrrial

i'm sure it takes loads of skill and stuff but to me it just looks like 2 people messing around. maybe it's just something that only people that know what it's all about can see. didn't mean to offend

memaeve

Swimming, 'cos I used to be big into it.

I like the hockey cuz it's like nothing we ever get to see over here, being honest Ireland suck in comparison to Holland and Spain. Holland 4 the GOLD.

Also like the swimming and rowing, its kinda exciting I suppose....oh I watched the mixed doubles badminton final today too, that was really exciting at the end even if the first game was a joke!

Flamingfud

My favourite's got to be fencing, because however much you try to civilise it, the basic idea of two guys going at each other with pointy things speaks to my very heart.




And the masks make them look like superheroes.

Boyclan

Women's beach volleyball. I think we all know why

L.W

mens swimming......but before they they start swimming.....and after they take they're shirts off......

lacuna

gymnastics, because i used to do it. (especially the beam)

trampoline, for the same reason.
