2012 Olympics Hype Thread

[vuvuzela2010]

the torch came through my town on wednesday but as I was at work I couldn't jump in front of it or anything lol

[Lord Clowncrete]

I'm interested solely in how well Indian athletes do.

OMG I LUV THIS THREAD

I watch anything during the Olympics, except for Water Polo or boxing. My favorite events to watch are swimming, diving, track and field, and gymnastics.

Ryan Lochte is gonna kick ass fo sho, in IM and backstroke? for the guys. I think Phelps will be beaten by Thorpe in the fly events, and Missy Franklin is gonna sweep the backstroke events for women. Oh, and that Japanese guy will sweep the breaststroke if he's participating.

I have a feeling that the US Basketball team is gonna get upset by some team.

That's all I can think of, prediction wise.

[Froakie]

Sure I am, but mainly because I'm going to watch one of the events. I think the athletics... I wanted swimming >:C

[Shinobu]

Mai Murakami won't be on the team, unfortunately. I love the little firecracker, but Japan's Olympic team was announced ages ago. IIRC, Sasada didn't make either :( Tsurumi and Tanaka are back though.

Oh noes! I missed the team announcement.

[Aestivate]

China gets announced soon. To say I'm nervous is... An understatement... GYM GODS PUT HE KEXIN OVER TAN SIXIN PLEASE.

[Shinobu]

The first four members for the Chinese WAG team were announced: Yao Jinnan, Sui Lu, Huang Qiushuang, and Deng Linlin.

The final member will be one of Jiang Yuyuan, Tan Sixin, or He Kexin.

[Aestivate]

Again. He Kexin please T_T

[Lyrebird]

So pumped for the Swimming. Australia vs. USA

[Sparrow]

I'm excited for Women's Beach Volleyball.

On Monday 18 June I took part in the Olympic Torch Relay as a Torchbearer in Pickering. I also watched the last Olympic Torchbearer on Tuesday come into York live in the York Racecourse. I'm interested in watching Taekwondo and Judo and I have tickets to see Boxing and Football live in London.

Muse's new single "Survival" to be official song of the Olympics

Faith in humanity = RESTORED.

I'm so jealous of you.

[Shinobu]

Olympic gymnastics trials are on now. I'm so excited!

I don't know much about this at the moment, but the wildfires in Colorado Springs are having an effect on the Olympic Training Center, which serves as an evacuation center.

[Nepeta Leijon]

I love that American girl who got the guaranteed spot... Gabby something.
