I'm so excited about the Summer Olympics this year! Luckily I'll be on maternity leave so I can watch the Olympics all day long! My favorite sport to watch is definitely gymnastics!
What's yours?

Hands down - (women's) gymnastics, but I also enjoy watching beach volleyball and swimming/diving.

Women's gymnastics for sure! I also really like all of the other random sports that don't ever get any coverage other years when it isn't the olympics - track and field, swimming, canoe/kayaking, triathlon, archery, etc.

Swimming and Diving are my favorite sports to watch. Watched a little of the prelims for gymnastics this year so I'll be tuning in for that too.

Show jumping as that is "my" sport! Track for sure (hurdles especially!), diving too!

I love the Olympics! I'm super excited for them to start. I keep joking that I'm going to take the two weeks off work and hang out at home dressed like an American flag while I watch ALL OF THE OLYMPICS! I'm a huge nerd. Anyways, my favorite summer events are women's gymnastics, swimming and diving. I really would watch almost any event though!
For the last summer Olympics, we had a Michael Phelps party and even baked a cake to eat in his honor after he won his last gold medal. Seriously, total Olympic nerd here.
ETA: haha this was my 100th post!

Gymnastics and diving are the ones that I watch live, but I also DVR (or watch online) synchronized swimming, since I did synchro for 8 years.

Water polo...Just kidding. I don't even understand how that's an Olympic sport.
I love gymnastics the best! I just find it so amazing what these athletes can do. It really is amazing.

@banana: hahahaa soooo funny story about opening ceremonies: two years ago at the winter olympics I was hanging out with my best friend watching opening ceremonies. Joe Biden had a front seat and I thought that was interesting so I said, "oh look! Biden is at the olympics!" my bff said, "who is Biden?"
"uhh, Joe Biden?"
"who is that."
"oh Good Lord. It's our vice president!!"
"oh really?"
