    Yes, I really enjoyed watching them this year. So much talent from all over the World in one venue was just so incredible this year. And as an American, I am so proud of our athletes who medaled as well as those who competed and didn't medal.

    Yes, I did watch a good deal of them. Mostly the gymnastics, swimming and track and field. Pretty impressive.

    I was lucky to see two events live i) the road cycling around box hill circuit on the first saturday of the games with millions on the streets cheering on the riders. It was such a good atmosphere. ii) the soccer QF's between Brazil and Honduras. We wanted Honduras to win as the underdog and it was really close

    Aside from those it's been a tv marathon while i've not been working!

    I tried watching every basketball game but missed one or two. I watched some swimming and since my 10 year-old daughter is taking gymnastics we both watched the gymnasts tear it up. Gold all day long.
