thought i'd post this for anyone who might be watching the olympics so you can post your thoughts, who's won what, what ever.
as for me i don't usually follow them, but this year they are in my city so making some sort of effert.
watched the cerimony last night which i thought was very good.
I usually watch quite a bit. Since London is several hours ahead of us here in the States, I can actually find out online who has done what before watching the taped events on TV. I have always gotten too nervous watching live events when I really care about who wins, so knowing ahead of time is fun. Kind of like sneaking around the house when I was a kid to find out what Mom had bought me for Christmas and then acting surprised on Christmas morning. LOL
China is in the lead in medals so far, and I've heard predictions that they will probably win the most this year. The U.S. is expected to come in third. They say the host country usually wins more medals than usual, so Great Britain should do well, although the guy who one the Tour De France has already been a disappointment for the Brits in the olympics.
I think Australia might struggle in a lot of Events but from our end of the World, we're expecting our Aussies to win at least 24 Gold Medals.
I think China will do well because they've hosted the last Olympics, Japan, USA and Great Britain should top the list in Gold Medals.
