Like really who is going to sit and really WATCH the olympics?

All we want is the highlights anymore.

I'm planning on watching a lot of the running events. The 100m, 200m, 400m, etc, plus the 1500m and 5000m.

I'd rather watch someone who's working to fix our nations problems than worry about vanity issues such as pride. Getting tired of watching family members suffer due to high gas prices..

said by SLD :

I stopped watching just before Coca Cola bought the Olympics.

Highlights?

I don't even watch the highlights. Quite frankly, I really don't care.

Big deal, some dude can jump over a pole, run around a track, throw a stick, throw a metal ball, etc.

YAWN.

Guess that makes me a typical American rube who isn't worldly.

I'm comfortable with that..

Hypocrite? Naa, I think that's too strong a word.

Probably simply someone who doesn't like other sports.

I watch baseball if it's on. I go to a few games a year, but I view baseball the same way I view going fishing. It's more an excuse to sit and do nothing.

I'm not saying it shouldn't be televised, or people shouldn't enjoy it if they do. I simply said I couldn't care less...
