Olympics!!!!!!! The opening ceremonies are on live right now on CBC (Canadian Broadcast Channel) - they always have much better coverage than our American networks do. The parade of Nationas is currently arriving. This is my favorite part of the Opening ceremonies!!! I love to see what the countries are wearing and it warms my heart to see all the nations together in peace in one venue!!!!! I am so excited for the swimming events and am looking forward to many world records, to see Michael Phelps and Katie Hoff make history and to cheer on the "old lady" Dara Torres!!!! I also lolve watching diving, gymnastics and track and field. If you happen to see the trampoline events, it is awesome!!!!!! Those are my favorites, but I like to watch them all. Also, check out this link to the Olympic Gardens made especially for the event - you won't be sorry...... Olympic Gardens What are you looking forward to watching???? |
I love every bit of it and can't wait for TONIGHT:) |
OMG!!!!!!!!!!! I am so excited about Olympics, you don't even know!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait for tonight :D:D:D:D And gymnastics, of course!!! Rarely is gymnastics ever on television :( except once every four years at the Olympics, and it's my favorite sport to watch!! I've already got everything I can being DVR'ed LOL!! I'm also excited for swimming, diving, sync swimming, and soooo much more!! WOOT WOOT!! Don't know when the first gymnastics event is but I cannot wait! |
It's scheduled for my TIVO tonight as we won't be home..:( I wish we got the Canadian channel but we don't....not even on our cable. I heard it's going to be gorgeous and so different so I can't wait to watch! I love the parade of athletes and love to see what they are wearing and who designed them!!:D:D:D |
LOVE swimming events- diving especially. Also really like rowing and track events!! |
I think I like gymnastics best and although I never paid that much attention to basketball in the Olympics before, I WILL this year with LeBron playing. Here's to alot of GOLD for the USA!!! |
I am so excited! I have been looking forward to them starting for months now. :D I love the Olymics...3 weeks of not having to worry about finding something to watch on TV! :p |
Oops...didn't have time to finish typing. I like watching gymnastics, swimming and diving. In that order. I like watching the equestrian events, but they rarely have them on to watch. I like track and field, but only some of them...I don't like the wierd stuff like discus and javoline and I don't like watching people run 5 miles around and around, but I like the shorter races. (Seems like the majority of the track team is from the Univ of Oregon! Those ducks do alot of running apparently.) Hubby likes to watch the Basketball, go figure. Speaking of which, I'm I the only one slightly...bothered, for lack of better term...by the fact that people who play here on US teams go back to their home countries to play for the Olymipcs? Anyone have any friends or relatives going to compete? |
The torch lighting was awesome (a little drawn out, but cool nonetheless) and the torch is really neat!!! |
Diving and wrestling |
I like to watch gymnastics, diving and the swimming events. I like the winter Olympics better because of the figure skating. |
I forgot another one I like 'hockey' |
Did anyone notice during the parade of nations, they cut to George W and he was looking oh so bored checking his watch. :p |
I love the Olympics. I like gymnastics, diving, swimming and track and field. The President certainly did not look too bored today flanked by two gorgeous women in bikinis (beach volleyball). He was having a great time!!! Opening ceremonies were awsome. |
I think the open ing ceremonies were fantastic. 2008 people in total unison on the drums. Too great for words. Let's go GOLD for the USA!!!! |
