The Olympics are the most overrated sporting event. I couldn't give less of a damn about them. Winter Olympics is better by leaps and bounds.
I dont know it seems like all of the kids in my neighborhood are really enjoying watching them. They have even made their own medals and every day when they arent watching them they are trying to copy the different events. It has been pretty entertaining watching the kids try and "win gold"
My only complaint about the olympics being on is I NEVER get to see the throwing events for the track and field, I had to find out via FB how my friend did in the Discus, and how the US did in the hammer throw. Other than that I have been having a blast watching everything. I just get zoned in at night and have my coffe in the morning when I get up, and im ready for the next round!
