Other than the Track and Field and some gymnastics, I cannot think of anything else in it I care about.

When's the off?
Being in riot it will be in the early hours will it?
I watch most things at the Olympics.
Things I'd never dream of watching any other time.

5th August. Rio is 4 hours behind so events likely to run from noon until 3am or so. Some beach volleyball events go on even later than that.

I didnt actually plan on booking it off for the Olympics, its just worked out like that due to other weeks over the summer being booked up :)

Certainly wont be staying up until 3am every sodding day.

Can't wait for the archers, shooting, and all the other so called sports as entitled to be called sport as darts is

the pinnacle and most watched is always the 100 metres, 200 metres and some of the heats.

I like the javelin, hammer throwing and the high jump as well, but the rest of the shit like the equestrian, archery and the likes can fuck off
as for the volleyball, fuck that

Surely the Russians have to be kicked out now, in every sport. Cheating cunts.
