I did not even know they were on this summer, so in short, you are not alone!

I don't care, either. I think it's great that every country, even countries at war, can send some teams to the Olympics though. I just don't care for the events (for example, Olympic boxing is retarded, wtf helmets? And curling, that's not even a sport!)

i never liked them. i kinda like watching martial arts and archery and a couple other things, but i almost never catch it on tv. mostly i seem to find swimming/diving (boring), track and field (running/marthon is boring), or something else thats boring.

meh

Watching the curling teams compete is always nice....

I still don't know how the heck that sport attracts so many hawties.

Hmm... really didn't realize it was this unpopular. I for one can't wait, with football, basketball, and Euro 08 being over, I've been waiting for some sports to watch.

I'm not at all interested, although I do hope they prove an utter disappointment to the Chinese government.

Olympics ... not so much.

I also enjoyed this game. Super Spike V-Ball too.

When are they going to introduce the blood sports like pit fighting or christian v. lion?

I'll probably tune in if I can catch the 100m finals or something. The Olympics are a bit a fading tradition but that doesn't make certain events well worth watching.

Table tennis ftw. =D

I'm interested and it being in China, the controversy makes it even more interesting this year.

And being able to watch it in HD, is even better.

Don't care much for the Olympics to begin with, but IMO, we should boycott the Bejing games.

I'll gladly watch them for an hour or two when they're on, but I'm not really INTO it at all. Sporting events in HDTV are usually mildly entertaining at the least.
