    Currently watching the diving. Apparently Chelsea are thinking of signing Daly now that Drogba has gone.

      Beach Volleyball is in the lead[^], but then the women's gymnastics start tomorrow and that'll deserve some slow motion viewing. Seriously. Outside of the big three - athletics, cycling and swimming - what spor are you most excited about watching during the games? For me it is always the rowing, those guys and gals are amazing.

            Good idea. But I think even letting the woman oil up for some Greco-Roman would be okay.

                            Beach Volleyball is in the lead[^], but then the women's gymnastics start tomorrow and that'll deserve some slow motion viewing. Seriously. Outside of the big three - athletics, cycling and swimming - what spor are you most excited about watching during the games? For me it is always the rowing, those guys and gals are amazing.

                                Unfortunately, I haven't seen any shooting sports on the television yet. I like swimming, diving, weightlifting as they were on the most this weekend. I'd like to see some track and field though. I'll admit it, I pretty much like watching every Olympic sport, except soccer. Has anyone watched fencing? It looks like something out of Tron now.[^] Last night I watched slalom canoe, that was crazy looking.

                                  I just enjoy the variety and getting a sampling of sports I'd never normally bother with. Every two years (since I watch the Commonwealth Games as well) it's worth looking at different things. Field hockey is always a good watch.

                                    Fencing is big in Hungary, they've won one the men's events already. It is a bit frakin mental though.

                                      I just picked three[^] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hannah_Whelan[^] random[^] from the qualifiers for the ladies event. I don't call 17, 20 an 18 that young.

                                          Beach Volleyball is in the lead[^], but then the women's gymnastics start tomorrow and that'll deserve some slow motion viewing. Seriously. Outside of the big three - athletics, cycling and swimming - what spor are you most excited about watching during the games? For me it is always the rowing, those guys and gals are amazing.
