Rio Olympics 2016

What is everyone watching? 

I like to watch random sports and NBC streaming a bunch of different sports is awesome!  Handball looks like something that was invented in a basement when kids couldn't go out to play.  It was cool watching Argentina score their first ever Olympic goal.

Also pretty neat watching a DPRK table tennis player against a Japanese player.  The thought of that just kind of blows my mind.

Did anyone see the male gymnast snap his leg?  Hope the dude can make a full recovery.

I'm with you- love random sports.  Can't wait for the kayaking, watched fencing today.  My kids love the volleyball and swimming so we've seen a lot so far there.

I will watch anything during the Olympics. The more odd and random the better. I also yell at the television about sports I am clueless on. I become an expert every four years on whether lands were stuck properly or dives created too much splash. Speaking of diving, this woman who does color for the diving is in that upper echelon of annoying announcers.
