So Many Olympic Sports, So Little Time

It’s been 4 years since our Olympic hopefuls made their video debut in gymnastics…

 

How is it possible that those rolly drooling babies have turned into this?????

This Olympics, they are into fencing (with wooden spoons and super hero masks), soccer, badminton, swimming, cycling, running, and pretty much any other sport that’s being televised during their waking hours. 

Watch. Reenact. Repeat.

Brad and I think 4 man rowing could be an ideal fit for 2024. 😉 I would be happy to yell “ROW!” on the edge of the boat. You know if that’s what it takes for the team.

Or perhaps I’ll sit on the sidelines with intense emotion as Aly Raisman’s parents did last night as they watched her compete in gymnastics, if my heart could handle that much pressure…

 

For now I’ll sit in front of the telly and chant “U-S-A!!!!” with my superhero fencers and take in another great Olympics!

How about your family?  Do YOU get into the Olympic events?  Which ones are must-watch (or must-reenact) in your house?
