Happy Olympics Day!!

I'm a super lover of all things Olympic and am very much looking forward to the start tonight. Anyone else? What are your favorite events? Any favorite Olympians, past or present?

I'm a big fan of most of the usual events, but will really watch anything that is on. I was watching the prelim women's soccer games the other day.

I have very fond memories of watching the 1988 Seoul Olympics and all the Greg Louganis stuff. He is probably my favorite Olympian. I'm very excited to watch diving this year, as the top qualifier in men's 3m springboard is from Brandon and trains out of the pool where Quinn has been taking swim lessons.

I come from a winter Olympics town, Lake Placid NY. I love watching them. The winter are always my fav but I love the soccer too.

I love the summer Olympics! I love track, diving and gymnastics. I absolutely loved the Beijing Olympics 4 years ago, I wonder how the London opening ceremony will compare.

I'm excited too. Besides the gymnastics & swimming events, I also like the equestrian jumping.

I love love love the summer olympics... it has a special place in my hear as my uncle ran the torch for the 1996 games ( he even has a corner dedicated to the olympics and still has the torch he ran in atlanta.)

I love gymnastics, swimming and soccer. I'm sad I'm going to miss the opening ceremony but am set to record it.
