August 5, 201610 yr Track and field,Swimming,Gymnastics and any event that the USA has a chance to medal in.
August 6, 201610 yr I went through and recorded every night of primetime events on my DVR. Me too. Looks like I'm probably going to be off until next Friday, will be watching a lot of Olympic coverage during that time.
August 6, 201610 yr I watch everything in the Summer Olympics. I especially look forward to and go out of my way to watch Track, gymastics, and wrestling. But I'll watch whatever they put on TV. Same here. I'm a big fan of rowing for some reason as well.
August 6, 201610 yr Watch it all but love sand volleyball. Very impressive to see 2 people handle it so well. Plus the "scenery" is usually top notch.
August 6, 201610 yr Women's beach volleyball Regular women's VB as well. When I left the bar and turned things over to the girls working the night shift, I left them a copy of the C-J with all the Olympic TV listings. I told them that was what we had been showing all day. One of them looked up at the screen just then — both are lesbians — and noticed the women's soccer fixing to start. "My day just got better," she said. We all had a great laugh. :lol2:
August 6, 201610 yr Love the diving, too. I thought I was hot stuff when I was a teenager. Could do about anything off a (real) low springboard. We were on vacation in Florida and I was trying to show off in a big public pool. Up steps a guy in his 20's who made me look like a piker (pun intended). I asked one of the guards who he was; I had never seen anyone like him. I was told that it was a guy that was trying to qualify for the Olympics. I refrained from showing off for the next hour or so.
August 7, 201610 yr Women's beach volleyball Apparently one of my boys has a new favorite Olympic sport as well, ha ha. He found it today and couldn't wait to share it
August 7, 201610 yr I much prefer the Winter Olympics but for Summer Olympics I like Boxing, Women's Beach and Indoor Volleyball, Wrestling and Shooting.

Not trying to be a jerk, just trying to be a friend. That word fell out of the lexicon 30 years ago.
