Olympics 2012

My interest in anything pertaining to the Olympics and sports in general pretty much begins and ends with this video.

O_O

WAAAAAANT.

I enjoy them for something to keep me busy when bored. Nothing to get wrapped up in, but still nice for leisure. There's some pretty amazing athletes out there, and it's cool to see the world represented all in one place for some competitive fun.

I don't really watch them or keep up but yeah, I agree with this. If nothing is on, it could be entertaining depending on the sport.

I'm not a huge (or even moderate) sports fan, but I usually look forward to the Olympics because it's something outside the usual rugby and cricket we get stuck with here in Australia, and not so much because of the sport but the whole world coming together in healthy competition without guns (at least, at each other) kind of thing. Unfortunately, as already stated, I am in Australia, so if Australia isn't competing with a reasonable chance of winning a medal, it doesn't get shown on tv here. Result: nearly a week in, all we've seen is swimming, rowing, equestrian and beach volleyball. None of the stuff I'm actually interested in seeing.

I like watching the horse jumping and I always seem to miss that. In general I prefer the winter games,though did like the opening

I was never really interested in the Olympics until I saw Hazekiah's post.

Just caught this video of this guy's arm breaking or something in the olympics - http://www.buzzfeed.com/jpmoore/hear...-injury-of-the

What makes me laugh is when the guys all rush over, I thought they were running to help him but no! they roll out an olympics sign and hold it up so no one can see the guy in pain behind it lol.

I know not everyone is a fan of Cracked, but this article is pretty good:

I'm a huge fan of Cracked an that article TEARS ME UP INSIDE. ;__; (Even though I knew most of that stuff already, though the bankruptcy thing I never put two and two together on. O__o )

I kinda like it, but the only sport I care and like is football - I LOVE it, actually, haha - nothing more than that. Volleyball is nice, but I rarely watch.
