The official 2024 Olympics thread.

With the official start coming later this week are you going to watch the Olympics? I may catch a few things but I do have to admit I was today years old when I realized that Break Dancing is now a part of the Olympics. 🤣

USA USA USA!

Hell, yes.

 

[WildcatFan1982]

I didn’t enjoy the Olympics last time because no crowds made it feel like I was just watching practice. But under normal circumstances I will cheer on USA on any and every sport there is.

 

[Caveman Catfan]

Looking forward to the break dancing!!!

I'm poppin' and lockin' in anticipation!

Who carries the flag for the USA into the stadium? Sydney Mclaughlin?

 

[WildcatFan1982]

They picked Lebron yesterday

Did Abby Steiner make the team?

Did Abby Steiner make the team?

Don’t think so

Events that come around every 2-4 years are awesome.

Olympics
Copa and Euro
World Cup
Ryder Cup
Presidents Cup

And they usually come at a time when the rest of the sports world is in a slumber. I’m all in for Canada and the US teams.

How long before gaming becomes an Olympic sport?

Don't know, but gambling should already be. My ass would enter. I have bet on Cricket games before (and do not know jack shit about it). I bet on Euro basketball, Korean, Turkey, Australian, hell name a pro league and I have bet on them.

Hell yes, I'm stoked for (in no particular order).....

* Basketball
* Track & field
* Swimming
* Boxing

Whenever I’ve tried to figure out cricket I get even more confused

Fun fact: the frenchies didn't install a/c in the Olympic Village in order to be green. There's some sort of water based system that cools it down to 82 Fahrenheit. Teams are apparently allowed to bring window units and portable ones if they wish.

No deodorant either.
