[Logan]

[bluekat]

I like the gymnastics the best. But I like the winter olympics more, my favorite is hockey:D

[Cataholic]

Gymnastics.

[flamepony12]

yep....go usa!! but the other night the romanians were kicking the usa girls teams butts :P

[catland]

I like the track and field events.

But the winter Olympics are my favorite.

[primabella]

I'm actually surprising myself this year and have been watcing a lot of the Olympics. I like gymnastics, swimming and beach volleyball best. I'm not even sure why. :p I'm disappointed Canada has only picked up one medal so I'm hoping they'll do better soon.

I also like the winter olympics better. Especially the hockey. :D

[DJFyrewolf36]

Tae Kwan Do, just got added this year! Looking forward to watching some TV coverage...

I hope the USA basketball team can pull it together...sheesh what a bunch of whiny prima donnas :p

[lizzielou742]

I loooove watching gymnastics and swimming because I used to do both when I was a kid....and I miss it! :)

[ILoveMyAbbyGirl]

I like a lot of them, but personally, I like gymnastics and equestrian. Swimming is kind of boring, I usually watch the end to see who wins. :)

[flamepony12]

Same here... usually it's either Phelps (or the "Phelpinator") or Thorpe (the "Thorpedo"):)

[swimma253]

Gymnastics and Swimming!!!!! WooHoo!!! Go U S A !

[EssTer]

cross country will be tomorrow.. I have no idea what time LOL.. but then's gonna be final for individual competition and also for team competition.. I heard it's 14.30 by our - europian time...

[Uabassoon]

I really enjoy watching gymnastics. But I also like watching that sport where they wave the ribbon around because I think it's funny.

[carole]

I am not even a sports fan, I never even watch our big Rugby events, and believe me NZ is Rugby and cricket mad, but I love the olympics, I enjoy the gymnastics, swimming, diving, cycling,if NZ is competing I will watch, even if I don't really like the sport that much.

[Cincy'sMom]

Gymnastics, Volleyball (beach or indoor), softball, diving...and most of the rest of it :)

[flamepony12]

:)

[jazzcat]

Diving, swimming and gymnastics. I have a short attention span so I need those things that over quickly. Of course with NBC's coverage they drag everything out. I can hardly sit through the gymnastics.

[flamepony12]

i know--- there are tooootooootooo many commercials :)

[Vermontcat]

I love watching the Equestrian events the best but I also like watching the Gymnastics with my daughter.(she says someday she will be in the Olympics)
Thanks for posting those great photos EssTer, I haven't been able to see the Cross-Country on TV here.

[carole]

I also enjoy the womens and mens weight-lifting and shot put events, especially if we have a contender in there.

I am not much into the hockey,basketball,judo,boxing, but in general I like most of the olympics.

[flamepony12]

*bump* the olympics r still on u know! :P;)

[MariaM]

How long do the olympics go for? I haven't seen any yet! Is there still diving and gymnastics? Those are my favorite things to watch:)

[carole]

I think they are on for two weeks, I always find the gymnastics on too late, and I just have to be content with seeing some in the morning, l love watching them too.!!!:)

[G.P.girl]

same here, i love the gymnastic and the equestrian :D and of course the track and field. but really i love it all.

[Animal Lover12]

I think I pretty much like everything.
But the only thing I have been catch is the gymnastics and swimming. I like the gymnastics.
P.S what is equestrian??? What ever it was called!

[carole]

Equestrian is the horses, doing dressage, jumps, etc etc.

[HollandLoppy89]

Equestrian and gymnastics! I'm not sure of the scedule for equestrian though...anyone have it?

[Animal Lover12]

[Freckles]

That women's marathon today was special, with an American coming in third for a bronze. :)
Can't imagine running that far; I'm happy if I WALK two miles daily!

But more power to them.

Here's (http://www.athens2004.com/athens2004/) a link to the olympics website.

[KYS]

"Gymnastics"

[davidpizzica]

I like all of the gymnastics especially the womens gymnastics. I have yet to see an ugly girl in the womens. They are all beautiful!

[carole]

David did you see the trampoline competition, it was fantastic, gosh those woman are amazing.

My favourite really would have to be the cycling in the velodrome, I have decided this is the Tops, especially watching Sarah Ulmer bring home the GOLD for NZ, sorry just had to slip that in , bragging rights and all. lol
