Anyone started watching yet? Just got the football highlights on BBCi. Never usually watch Olympic FOotball due to the poor standard.

Is it the Olympics?

Will there be candy-floss?

I f**king hate the Olympics. F**k all on TV for a month or something except poxy athletics. Just when I'm getting Sky HD installed all they'll be on to watch is running.

No interest, Never had in any of them.

It's sport but not as I know it.

Since Hitler's olympics they have all been political. These ones are the worse. China should never have been allowed to host them.

Funny thing is that Manchester couldnt apply for the Olympics even after a storming commonwealth games some years ago because apparently Manchester isnt a capital city, when were Atlanta and L.A made capital cities then ? :confused:
