I'm rooting for every country to do their best, but I'm obviously rooting overall for the USA. I actually like the swimming events and the gymnastics events. My favorite moment was when Michael Phelps was able to get gold for the first time this season/year. He had a very bad start, but towards the end of his events, he just got better and better and that makes me proud that he was able to have a good end to his Olympic career. I'm also proud of the American who won gold in a race with Locke. I can't remember his last name, but I believe it was his first gold metal ever. It makes me happy to know that those who are not well known at first get their chance to shine. :)

I haven't really been keeping track of the Olympics, but I've got to say, the opening ceremony was absolutely amazing.

My favorite sport is gymnastics, and I'm rooting for the USA! :D My favorite Olympic moment has to be when Gabby Douglas won the individual all-around gold, because she is just amazing. Go Gabby! :'D

Haha, this year I feel like I'm rooting for everyone. I actually wish the US media would talk a little more about athletes from other countries... for example Phelps is amazing but he's not the only swimmer I care about. I saw a spot on a Jamaican runner yesterday and it was really cool!
My favorite events are always the ones I've never seen before....like floor hockey. Who knew that involved a wet felt floor??

My favorite sport would probably be the velodrome track cycling, its quick so I don't have to watch it long haha, I'm routing for Great Britain. My favorite Olympic moment would probably have been breaking the velodrome track WR then having it beating two minutes later by China lol

Rooting for the USA! I love the track run with Carmelita Jeters and that huge smile on her face when she got second place! I also love the gymnastics as well :)

I love watching the equestrian sports, it's such a shame we got such terrible coverage of them!

Go USA!!!! I love watching the gymnastics. I was sad Aly didn't get a bronze, but I loved seeing Gabby's smile when she saw the all around scores pop up. Watching the gymnastics is my favorite. :)

I root for Germany and the USA. My loyalties are torn by my love of the German language and the people I know there and the fact that live in the USA. My favorite part of the Olympics is always the opening ceremony, but this year I missed it, sadly. I would have loved to see Matt Smith run the torch!
