Born Hunter 17,780 Posted August 5, 2016 Report Share Posted August 5, 2016 Well, who's looking forward to this spectacle over the coming weeks? I believe the opening ceremony is midnight tonight. It's probably the only sporting event that I actually have a bit of passion for. I'm not a mad keen follower of the athletes or sports but I do love the Olympics. The diverse mix of disciplines, sporting excellence, the grandeur of it all. Other than the bread and butter track and field events I really enjoy the gymnastics, weightlifting and swimming. I can even get into the sailing and rowing. There must be a few amateur boxing fans on here too? What's everyone's thoughts? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

johnny boy68 11,726 Posted August 5, 2016 Report Share Posted August 5, 2016 I love the Olympics fair play, for most of the reasons that Sheldon already highlighted. I'll be having a look at the opening ceremony as always. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TC Do the maths on how many players each Union as to pick from, I'm not saying that it's fair but England have a good 7s team compared to us and Scotland in fairness. What about the last British Lions being mostly Welsh, imo they were picked because they were better than there counterparts I'd like to think team GB was the same. Anyway for next few weeks I'm team GB and I'm not bothered what part of this island they come from. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
