Default Olympics?

Nope, you're not alone, any other time the Olympics have been going on in the past I'd sit and watch every event, but this time around I'm either too busy or just not interested enough to watch.

I don't follow the Olympics religously but at least I still keep in touch with Olympic news whenever a record is broken. Phelps' many golds are simply amazing.

I'm lucky enough to be able to watch a little bit of the Olympics every lunchtime! I think that's the best time to watch it, when you're stuck eating and not doing anything else. Otherwise I think watching it is a little bit too time consuming on a busy day so I leave it to the late hours or perhaps a little bit in the early morning.

No Olympics for me this year, maybe because they are in China, Who Knows!?!?!?
Not interested.

But seriously I am interested in the USA Basketball Team, but still don't watch it. My son tells me whats going on.

I usually NEVER watch the Olympics. I have been watching. The opening ceremonies were incredible would have been even better if i'd had a few capt morgans.....wow what a light show. I was however both amused and embarrassed when as a few Countries came in like (I think) it was Iran or Iraq the camera panned to President Bush who was extremely interested in knowing what the hell was taking the USA to come into the arena (as we all were) BY LOOKING AT HIS WATCH! It was classic...........
