I really enjoy watching the diving.

Weight-lifting and Table tennis are pretty cool as well.

Just realised that during the 2012 Olympics I decided to enter this one, then promptly forgot. It's probably a bit late now, right?
It's not so important what people think when you come in. It's much more important what people think when you leave.

Absolutely loved the Olympics as a child. I'm a bit meh towards it these days although the London Olympics brought a little bit of interest back. Interested to see that golf is in it this year.

The Sprints in T&F. In particular the 100m and 4x100s.

Boxing.

Find myself glued to the Curling some times too.

I tend to get into a lot of the events though.

I'll watch anything when the Olympics roll around. Especially if Britain are in with a shout of a medal.

Anyone know of any plans to have a new forum for the Olympics like we did with the World Cup?

I just came in to mention that.

I dismissed it at the time as a joke, but taking recent events into consideration it was probably a genuine claim.

Didn't he back out of a prospective marriage as well? Clearly the guy has commitment issues.
