The only event that I actually like is Basketball, but I'll probably end up paying attention to some of the other ones, like swimming and whatnot.
I watched the opening ceremonies, and I thought the opening part with the drums was by far the best part of the whole thing. The rest was good, but the drums stole the show in my mind. The ending fireworks were awesome too. One-man dancing train coming through! Make some room for the funk!

ZOMG! 900 intelligent Vari Light instruments! ZOMG SAUSE!
Someday, I will work an opening ceremony like this. I will cum my pants. There was a quote here, but the the person who SAID the quote and pretty much ASKED for it to be placed in my sig asked for it to be removed.

I'm spitting nails at my own network, NBC. I'm a cable subscriber here in Bend, Oregon but apparently we're not an "approved TV provider" so we can't watch the streaming video! Absolutely ridiculous.

I love fireworks so their fireworks display just awed me. While I watched part of the opening ceremony, I switched channels to see the political side of the show (all those rallies going at the same time as the opening ceremony).
I don't have Eurosport channel so I have to just watch whatever the local news networks would show from all the games running at the Olympics.

I watched part of the Artistic portion of the Opening Ceremonies last night, they did some really cool stuff.
I'll probably flip through and watch an event here and there. Gymnastics and Diving are my favorite. The Grow Your Own 1Up Mushroom does not come with any soil. You need to provide your own. It can be found on the ground, generally outdoors. - ThinkGeek

Well Phelps is off to a strong start, he broke his own Olympic record in the 400-meter by 1.44 seconds. The guy is a monster I just love to watch him compete. He's one of the best athletes in the world. I really hope he gets eight gold medals.
"How to hit home runs: I swing as hard as I can, and I try to swing right through the ball...The harder you grip the bat, the more you can swing it through the ball, and the farther the ball will go. I swing big, with everything I've got. I hit big or I miss big. I like to live as big as I can." Babe Ruth
