Favorite summer sports to watch are a toss-up between gymnastics and swimming and winter would be figure skating. We will be watching highlights or clips/reruns. We don't have cable, Peacock, and at least the gymnastics will be airing when I'm working. I don't know if NBC will be airing anything on our local channel that I can kind of get with rabbit ears. This is probably the only 2 weeks that I wish I had all the cable/streaming.
I used to love to watch gymnastics and dreamed of being a gymnast. All the girls who could do back a handspring seemed so cool. But my mom wouldn't let me sign up and I'm 5 ft 9, so it wasn't to be.
But I don't really get into the Olympics at all anymore.
What is your favorite Olympic sport to watch both summer and winter? Summer: field hockey, soccer, women's gymnastics, swimming, track Winter: curling, skiing. I much prefer the summer games.
Are you going to watch the Olympics? Every day!
Can you watch the Olympics? Absolutely. I don't work in the summer. I have very little going on right now and what tiny bit of work I do have, I can easily do in front of the TV.
"Hello babies. Welcome to Earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. On the outside, babies, you've got a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, babies-"God damn it, you've got to be kind.”
Summer- We are definitely watching field hockey this year. Probably some gymnastics. Some Track & Field.
Winter: Not much. Some ice skating and I always enjoy skiing when I catch it but never look for it.
We kind of catch it when we catch it.
Fun fact- my 4th grade teacher was an Olympic hopeful in speed skating. She went to the University of Minnesota on a speed skating scholarship and quit when she got married. Some of her teammates made it to the Olympics, including her training partner. She got us so pumped up for the Los Angeles Olympics when I was in her class.
I like watching all of it. We catch it when we catch it. Gymnastics is obviously a favorite. I like women’s beach volleyball because they were so good for so many years. Obviously it’s a different team now though. But in the past they dominated.
I LOVE the Olympics. Winter is my favorite w figure skating, skiing, bobsled and skeleton. Summer I love gymnastics, track events. I’m not big on team sports bc I don’t have the attention span but I enjoy the highlights. Is it true breakdancing is Olympic now?! That will be interesting!
I love when they do a little showcase on the background of athletes and I learn more about them.
We have local channels through some sort of digital antenna.
