Olympics

Do you guys follow the Olympics closely? Or does it not interest you at all?
I tend to follow a few of the events which tend to mainly be the running ones (short distance) and the football events. Other than that, I don't really care about it that much.

Doesn't interest me at all. I just think it is boring and overhyped. I prefer the football and cricket anyway.

Overall, this doesn't really interest me. It's boring and does no-one else think here, that the live show drags for an excessive amount of time? An exception is when I watched the 2012 games as this was when the Olympics came my home country, in the United Kingdom.

I am a huge sport fan but even to me the Olympics is overhyped, and there are very few events that interest me. There is a lot of waiting around for such short events such as a throw of a javelin or the 100m sprint. I also find it irritating to watch sports where you will have a poor view of the playing area. It seems like an event I would have to watch on the TV if I was going to. I would probably pay more attention if it was hosted in my country.

I support the Olympics, but I would say that I don't follow it too much. I just catch the highlights on the news or see random stuff come through my facebook newsfeed.

I don't follow it and purposely boycott it due to the human rights and animal rights abuses associated with the building of the Olympic Villages.

Which country do you live in? Maybe the games are coming to where your living soon? Tokyo has postponed its games to 2021 which is a disappointment, to say the least.
