Ahh I love the Olympics and yes, it is that time again!

I wasn't hear for the Opening Ceremony but I have just caught up on it, it was fab, simple but spectacular, I loved the torch as well. Not a bad fireworks finale either!

Happened to wake up at 2:30am last night so got to watch the incredible Adam Peaty get the gold with a world record, excellent stuff, now just watching the rowing.

The reason I love the Olympics is because I watch sports I'd never bother with, like yesterday I cheered on David Florence in the Canoeing: Kayaking singles, excellent stuff.
 
Yay for the Olympics!

I've only been able to watch Cycling and swimming(although I am quite fond of the latter) because the station it's on payed a **** load of money to air it, and now has to show commercials every 10 minutes. **** annoying.

I particularly enjoyed watching the refugee girl win her heat in the swimming, she has such an incredible story and she was so chuffed. I love that there is a refugee Olympic team, it's such a nice gesture at a time when discrimination is becoming more rife.

Caught some of the archery and canoeing, as well as the judo. Judo confuses me, they have to get their rival on the ground but can only do so in a certain way, it must be difficult to resist the temptation to just smack them one.
 
I really enjoy gymnastics, mainly women's but men's are insane as well.

Swimming is fun to watch, even though I've never been a huge fan of it.

I also watched a bit of archery, women's rugby, and, something I'd like to watch more of, table tennis/ping pong!

Another thing I'd like to watch is (synchronized) diving.

Yay Olympics.
 
Watched cycling, football, swimming, and gymnastics so far. Like gymnastics but my favorite is swimming, having been on my high school's swim team for two years.
 
I've been into cycling for a couple of years, so I watched the road racing. Both races were dramatic and exciting (no medals for GB), but the women's race would have been a lot more enjoyable if the race leader had not almost killed herself crashing on the final descent.
 
Tom Daley has been on the TV screens at work all day in what is essentially a piece of string.

So yes I enjoy the Olympics.

This one I care less about than usual, I think it's just the awkward times to watch it and all the scandals TBH. Which is shame I usually love it.
 
Been watching the rowing. Shame the first day was affected so much by the weather and the second day had to be cancelled completely. Hopefully we get more days like yesterday.
Both the men's and women's cycling road race were exciting and the finishes were quite tense.
Also enjoying watching Neymar struggle trying to carry the home side out of the group.
 
Not interested in the Olympics whatsoever. Was interested last time because it was in London, Eurosport we're broadcasting in 3D and I just bought myself a 3D telly. But this year, nah.

Anyway, the reason I popped in...

The way the forum works is that you need to post a few times before you can make a topic. It's to avoid Spam and such. But welcome to CoasterForce! :)
 
Is nobody watching the Paralympics then?

I was gonna leave a screenshot of the medal table, but it would be out of date in about 5 minutes.
TeamGB are smashing it!

Even without all those medals, it's just awesome, awesome stuff.
One legged high jumpers ffs!

Then there was this little Chinese swimmer dude yeah? No arms. At all. Not even a little stump or a fin or anything. From the shoulders down, nothing. First of all, how the f*ck does he not just bob up and down with his feet sticking out of the water until he drowns?
And secondly - get this yeah - the c*nt won! I mean seriously, dafuq is that about?

You need to be watching this stuff, man.
