Advantages: Amusing sports

Disadvantages: Only every 4 years!

I dont know about anyone else, but I love the olympics! Despite the fact the americans always win all the medals worth winning, and Britain win like... silver in the equestrian or something equally boring, its still such fun!

How is is possible to take a genuine interest in Weightlifting for three weeks? Or know the star players in the Ugandan hockey team. I know not, why these normally mundane sports seem to take on such a interesting edge for the duration of the games, they just do.

I guess its the same thing that gets people watching "The Worlds Strongest Man" every Boxing Day.

Theres always a huge number of sports on show, and the coverage on the beeb is always top notch and take it all seriously, and have commentators who seem to know *something* about greco-roman wrestling or whatever.
