Sound off: Your favorite Olympic Sport?



The Olympics are seriously one of the finest sporting events the world can put on, with so many athletes competing in so many diverse sports -- it's not hard to find people to root for with stories you can easily get behind.

So what about you? What is your favorite Olympic sport(s)? Do you like the less mainstream stuff like Archery and Beach Volleyball or the more mainstream stuff like Basketball and Tennis?

Sound off!

What he said. I was looking the most forward to this all year. It doesn't matter if it's men's or women's. They need more TV time.

After that, I'll probably take the Track and Field events and honestly, I enjoyed Cycling as well. I guess you could say anything that is a race.

Curling! Oh, that's the other Olympics.

Tennis would be my answer, but it's not that different than any other tennis tournament which has such a variety of countries anyway.

I guess I'd say volleyball, indoor or beach, doesn't matter.

Women's beach volleyball.

I'm not sure if I like it because of the sport itself or other reasons, though....

Curling is fun to watch in the Winter Olympics.

I mainly like the mainstream stuff basketball, tennis, and track. I can get into a few of the random sports for short views, but other than that its mainly just the above 3.

Beach Volleyball, and some of the gymnastics is actually pretty entertaining to watch.

Re: Sound off: Your favorite Olympic Sport?

I like men's basketball, women's soccer, and women's indoor volleyball. Haven't really watched handball, but it sounds interesting.

Just about everything else I have no interest in.
