Hi all. No doubt you are watching some of this. What do you think? I have watched some of the obvious sports, football, beach volley ball and swimming. So far the British have not achieved much although they have done quite well. (If only we could get medals for 4th & 5th!!!).
I think the general organisation has been good, only the Americans complained about the opening ceremony, but at least we didn't have Boris just waving a flag!!!
Good luck to all your nations and I think we deserve a pat on the back for putting on a good show.
Lets concentrate on the good performances - (and the English women are not too bad on the beach volleyball either!!!)

I'm Watching it regularly but mainly the individual sports.I don't care about football and such in the Olympics to be honest. It's much more interesting to be watching something where they can actually break a record rather than just win a medal.

i like football in general,but to me it seems that the national teams here are not taking it too serious,so i decided not to watch it. today another medal for my national team,a bronze one

The US are acting like d1cks towards us recently, I guess there must be an upset between those with big Back OT - We are doing well IMO, lots of pressure on home teams. I just get home now and put it on, only crap and re-runs on the other channels anyway.

I follow alot Olympic games, i like all the magic around it. I loved the great opening cerimony. Pandemonium was awesome, with great music and performing. Obviously i follow more the sports my country is in, but actually i like to watch everything because most of the sports iam unable to watch if its not Olympics. I love football and its my favourite sport by far, but i wish we could see more competitions like Olympic games!
