I loved watching Ennis finish her last event and get the gold for her country. The expression on her face of overwhelming joy was wonderful.

I haven't really been following much of the Olympics, but I have seen some Volleyball and cycling. The opening ceremony was the best though. I loved it. ^^ Rooting for team GB, as I'm from England. Whoo~ :P

Rooting for New Zealand! :D That's where I'm from. Personally my fav moment was when Mahe Drysdale won the gold. That was rather tense. I didn't even know of Mahe Drysdale until a month before, when I went to a camp and because it was all olympics themed I got put into team drysdale. That made me investigate a bit more. Turned out a friend of mine who does rowing actually met Mahe. I'm pretty proud to be a Kiwi, sad that they didn't show too much of the NZ sporting events on the free olmpics TV channel here in Florida.

I only really just started watching the Olympics this year, but I saw bits and pieces before. I vote for America, and I like the Gymnastics... best moment that I've seen so far would probably be when Lochte beat out Phelps this year just by I think it was half a second.

Go Team USA! Gymnastics and diving are my favs. But I am very proud of our gold medalists for skeet shooting and judo this year :)

I do have to say, I really like sprinting. That and the shooting competitions... Sometimes, those are just SO AMAZING. Someone winds up shocking me every single time.

I'm rooting for the USA. My favorite sport to watch is probably archery or gymnastics. Archery is just so interesting and calculated, its really cool and intense! Gymnastics is more interesting because its like people are doing MAGIC. I mean how do they flip like that? It's like physics doesn't apply to them. My favorite moments, though, have been Missy Franklin winning all those medals. I really love her as an athlete, because she is coached by her high school swim coach, she gives up all her prize money and endorsements so she can swim for her high school team, and she would rather live in Colorado where her friends and family are than move to California where there are better pools and swim coaches. I love that she's just such a normal down-to-earth girl, and when she wins a medal she's just truly delighted by it. It's so fun to root for her. :)
