Yes, but American coverage in simply terrible. They show only what Americans are doing and to hell with everyone else. I hope to get better coverage on BBC America.

I`ll watch the opening ceremony + maybe the odd event but i think it drags on for too long + can be boring. People will also be ripped off left right + center down in London.

I'm super excited to see if they can beat Beijings opening ceremony. Seems to me that no one can beat this

reply
Medulla Oblongata 2012/07/09 13:35:46 (edited)

Yes

Not all the events because where I am, the channel I watch them on airs them on the host country's time, which is usually the middle of the night where I live (and I have classes in the morning). But I will definitely be watching the water events (particularly swimming with Michael Phelps and Ryan Lochte) and gymnastics, too.

Sure, I was at the Bejing Olympics, and I'm going to be in London when the Olympics takes place too.

It's going to be hosted in Stratford, East London; which happens to be the place I always stay in when I visit London.

Really impressed by the increasingly phenomenal builds of the athletes each year to support their constant push to break records. This is what the human body is for, not supporting mediocrity but facilitating something truly impressive.

Honestly wish they would do the same as professional bodybuilding and allow an 'open untested' division just so we can see how far the body can really be pushed by the pro's in each of these sports :)

Bring it on!!!!
