    Default Fav Olympic Sport

    With the summer games comming soon. (at the end of the week I think) I ask the great question, What is your favorite Olympic sport to watch on t.v.?

    I would have to say mine would be soccer/football, either word u prefer.

    I'm not much of a fan of the Olympics. But bobsledding or luge is cool to watch.

    Or is this poll only for summer games?

    Out of atlethic sports I especially like relay runs:
    - 4 x 100m
    - 4 x 400m
    Sometimes very thrilling, love 'em.

    Out of team sports it would have to be basketball, the upcoming tournament should be very interesting with Iverson as the U.S. team leader and very strong European teams...

    Ice hockey for winter olympics and for sumemr I actually don't mind watching all the obscure sports you never get to see normally like weightlifting and archery. :D

    Being a fencer, I like fencing but I realise that it is very difficult to watch if you are unfamiliar with the sport. Also it is tricky because you cannot see the emotions of the fencers until they win/lose a point. And of course the blades move so fast that you can hardly see them.

    Ahh well... who said it was a spectator sport.

    As i don't have work over the summer i'm prob going to watch a lot of the olympics except for any gymnastic releated stuff.

    I'd agree that the winter olympics r better with bobsleding and the luge being entertaining.
