NBR: Who's excited about the Olympics?

I am!  I love all the stories that come out of the games and watching all the different sports.  I am SO bummed that the games start today and I go back to work on Monday (I'm a teacher).

Anyway, what will you be watching?

I love watching tennis, gymnastics, and swimming.

    Oh Me!! I have been counting down to tonight for awhile I just love the opening ceremonies. I also love all the stories of that athletes, from all countries! I don't officially go back until late August but I'm teaching summer school and prep starts next week. I only have to go in a day or two though and then after that it's 2 weeks of summer school but only until 1pm thankfully. I think they will broadcast the popular sports and stuff in the evenings though so I don't think you'll miss much!

    I'll be watching swimming, diving, gymnastics for sure and then probably lots of other events too.

    That reminded me, it was 4 years ago that I met my DH. I was spouting off facts about Michael Phelps and watching one of his races the day we met. I think he though I was a little weird :)

  • Me!! We're actually heading over next week for 4 days of Olympics. Have tickets to rowing, fencing, volleyball and basketball. We live in the British Isles and my sister lives in London so it was a no-brainer to go.

    Opening Ceremonies: I loved it. It was very British which I thought was great. Was too tired to stay up past seeing Canada walk in so hoping to catch rest of it this weekend.

  • I love the Olympics! I'm really looking forward to gymnastics and swimming!

    I love the olympics. I really get into the competitive nature of it and feel a lot of pride for the USA. I love watching Men and Women's Soccer and Gymnastics mostly, but I like to watch most of the other sports too.

     Me too! It's definitely what I'm looking forward to the most. DH and I are watching the opening ceremony as we speak (DVR). It's definitely....interesting to say the least.

  • Me!  DD watched with me last night and she thought the Parade of Nations was awesome.  She was fighting sleep so she could see USA walk in, it was so cute.  She is also currently obsessed.  She had me find the schedule of the games and has her list ready of what she wants to watch, archery included.  I was told to DVR swimming tonight since she will be at a birthday party.  

    Looks like I know what will be on my t.v for the next two weeks!
