Question

What is your favorite summer Olympic event and why?

Answer 1

Swimming, because i love to swim, and I find it amazing how fast those swimmers can swim.

Answer 2

Gymnastics.  I like both mens and womens.  That sport takes a lot of talent, skill, nerves, hard work, strength, balance, etc.....

It's amazing when someone does a perfect routine knowing that just one s***w up can cost you the medal.  A lot of other sports just don't have that much too it and therefore gets way to predictable.

Answer 3

Track and Field: Because Americans rule that event in general.

Answer 4

This Olympics has been awesome for me... I'm falling in love with all these new games.  I'm really enjoying Women's Indoor Volleyball, soccer (never really watched it... loving it!), beach volleyball, tennis, etc.  I'm enjoying everything, pretty much.  Wish they broadcasted more water polo, though.

EDIT: Why the thumbs down?  Was my answer bad because I listed sports that you didn't like?  Sheesh...

Answer 5

Since I love swimming, then it would be Swimming. It's also one sport my country(the Philippines)is mostly good at.

My other favorite is Track&Field. It's probably one of the oldest, main and most interesting event. There so much to see in Track&Field. It never gets boring.

My favorite contact sports are, Basketball, Soccer(Foot Ball), and Taekwondo. It's because they're exiting, and they're the sports that I play-exept for Taekwondo, but I'm planning to.

I also find Fencing and Archery interesting.

Answer 6

Womans beach volleyball, for obvious reasons, s**y time!!

Last night I was watching a match between Russia and Georgia, I found it quite interesting in light of the current war between the two nation!

Answer 7

womens artistic gymnastics handsdown

i am soo pasionate about gymnastics its not even funny

i was soo crushed when alicia fell off the beam and then on her floor exercise her feet slid

omg i was almost in tears

and if i were here i dont think i could have held them back

but she did handle the situation very well and so did all her teammates

that was a devistating blow to the u.s. considering they could have won gold if it werent for those two mishaps

but you cant forget she wasnt the only one nastia and shawn both did step out but the penalties were much less than those of alicia

but anyways wow went off there
