    Talking 2012 London Olympics

    I'm excited for it!
    Who will win the swimming freestyles events? Phelps?
    Track? Bolt?

    This shall be a discussion thread for those who are interested

    Wish I could have the tickets to go there and watch instead of staying at home looking at my TV
    I'm sexy and I know it :D

    I had [still have] the chance to go with my family, but will always decline,

    1. because the views you get on the TV are much better than the live views... for obvious reasons
    and 2. because I have better things to do... but that is besides the point

    How many people will try to solve their Rubik's Cube faster than Usain Bolt doing the 100m? What about a 4x4 faster than the 4x100m relay? Any others?

    I love the summer Olympics, the winter Olympics just bored me so much in 2010.

    Since the north east has nothing to do with the olympics I couldn't care less. I can't watch it either as It's so boring.

    I'm about 30 minutes away from the stadiums. Some of cycling is even nearer to me. I'm going to watch it all on TV if I watch any of it.
    3x3: S 7.91 | Ao5 12.11 | Ao12 13.88 | Ao100 15.44
    Clock: S 6.80 | Ao5 8.37 | Ao12 9.08 | Ao100 9.96

    Well, Phelps is doing ok with his 19 medals so far. James Magnussen is claiming he'll be known as the world's fastest swimmer, though.

    Which country will win the most gold medals this year?

    And here's a quiz about the Olympics, in word-search format: Olympics Quiz Word Search - Knowledge Mouse

    Man, remember when the 3x3 WR was very close to Bolt's 100m WR?

    Excited for the womens marathon Sunday, and the mens marathon the sunday after that. Those events excite me so much.

    I'd like to see some 5ks and 10ks as well.
