Is everyone excited? I personally am. Two hours until the opening ceremonies start. I just hope nothing terrible happens. That would be horrible. *Knocks on wood.*

EDIT: The reason I didn't post this somewhere else was because I didn't want any immature people to come and start bashing other countries and such.

I think that the Olympics are cool, I watched it a few times, but I never really got into it, maybe this year I will though.

I love the fencing competition at the Summer games, that's about the only thing I watch.

I'm more into Winter sports, so expect me to be all excited when 2006 rolls around.

I tried it for a while, but the class never advanced any so I left. I found Kendo to be more to my liking. I wish there was Olympic Kendo. *pouts*

Japanese fencing would sum it up I suppose. It's more head-on than fencing and most definately more painful.

I'm reluctant to call it a martial art though, it's more of a martial sport if that make any sense.

I have long considered the Summer Olympics as the "real" olympics. There are more than double the amount of countries that participate in the summer than the winter olympics. There are 202 countries participating this year, 3 more than in 2000. I watched the opening ceremony today and I must say that it was much better than the opening ceremony of the 2002 Winter Olympics. The one in Salt Lake City was great too but not as great.

But I love the olympics...I think it's so great when america totally whips the crap out of every other basketball team imaginable...Kevin garnett better be on the team...

BOO ya!
They'd kill everyone 1, 2, 3...I still remember the 2000 Olympics. XD
I watched the opening cermemony yesterday and I don't think think I saw KG. Where is he when we need him? Where's Shaq also?

If those two aren't one the team, we'd miss little chance of of making gold metal.

Kevin Garnett and Shaq are not on the Olympic team. A lot of the good players in the NBA did not join the team because they weren't comfortable with going over seas with all of the terrorism threats and such. But we still have Tim Duncan!:)

Tim Duncan? Lol, he's not goin to do much. I really think, Lebron James, Tracy McGrady, and Allen Iverson will do most of the work.

Phelps just won the gold for 400m.A new World Record has been set.

I am not that interested in the Olympics, and I have never watched them. I think the track stars would be fun to watch, but I don't know the television schedule, and I'm not that desperate to find out. I'd much rather watch Degrassi or something, but that's typical ol' Nick.

The Olympics are neat, I watched it for about 1 1/2 hours last night, it was Gymnastics and Swimming.
