Top 5: Athletics (With no doubt, my favourite summer sport), Badminton, Basketball, Fencing, Weightlifiting 

Honourable mentions: Gymnastics - Artistic, Judo, Modern Pentathlon, Sailing, Sport climbing

 

Bottom 5: Artistic Swimming, Basketball - 3x3, Skateboarding, Baseball and Softball

Sports I enjoy watching, except at the Olympics: Football (Men's tournament, U-23 players, come on! Send your best players, then I will start watching it.) Tennis (Too many of the top players don't participate.)

Sport climbing was already added in Paris with 4 events instead than 2

I think it's boring. I mean, what's the excitement when some races end in 5 seconds?

Yeah Speed Climbing isn’t my favorite, but I love watching bouldering. It’s a sport where athletes need strength, have to be either explosive or methodical or both, and have to use their mind often. P

Right, there's BMX freestyle. I should clarify BMX freestyle goes in my bottom list, but the actual racing is the one that's high on my list.

1-Football (just not the men's olympic tournament).  

 

2-Volleyball (I came to this forum from a volleyball forum, so not much to explain, i'm an ultra fanatic of this since I was a kid).  

 

3-Handball (I used to play it).

 

4-Field Hockey (didn't care much about it but started following seriously 6/7 years ago and now I watch many matches).  

 

5-Fencing (my favorite combat sport, I just love how it looks). 

 

Close: Basketball, Judo, Archery, Rugby 7s (I'd much rather watch XVs though).

 

Bottom 5: Wrestling, table tennis, road cycling, diving, Sailing (wouldn't even care if it weren't because ARG is good at it).

My feeling about equestrian dressage: the Dutch are pretty good at it (not as good as before, but still) but I just can not bring myself to watch it :p

I've chosen tenis, athletics, basketball (5x5 and 3x3) and sport climbing. I also very like handball, football (would make top 5 if not U23 in men's tournament), beach volleyball, badminton, all kind of cycling and rugby sevens.

 

The bottom five would be artistic swimming, water polo, boxing, equstrian and rythmic gymnastics.

I am unashamed, at getting nothing done.

Why Sport Climbing?

Well of all the added sports, Sport Climbing seems to have the largest interest and support. It seems like it might actually deserve a place in the Olympics unlike some of the other recently added sports.

      Winter Olympic Games Milano Cortina 2026 Tickets, Trips and Experiences

      By NearPup · Posted

      Well, decided (without much advance planning) to attend my first Olympics - and to do my first trip to Europe. Only going for a few days, and got five tickets - women's ice hockey finals (A), short track women's 1500m QF/SF/F and men's 5000m relay finals (A), Aerials mixed team (A), women's ski half pipe finals (B) and women's curling finals (A).   Somewhat regretting my women's curling finals ticket because getting from Livigno Saturday night to Cortina Sunday morning looks to be a massive pain in the butt, but I think I found an itinerary that minimizes the suck. Unfortunately I don't think there is a practical way for me to do my Milan -> Livigno -> Cortina -> Venice itinerary without having a rental car from when I leave Milan.   Flying SEA -> JFK -> MXP on the way there and VCE -> FCO -> FRA -> SEA on the way back (with an overnight layover in FCO, figured it wasn't any more expensive to get a hotel room there than anywhere close to Cortina).

      Apparently, they didn't enter because of financial reasons.  Info on the Wikipedia page of the event.

      [OFF TOPIC] General Chat

      By Thagard · Posted

      I am sorry. I know what you're going through. I lost my father in autumn 2023 and his condition deteriorated since spring. He had days when he was not conscient of what was happening to him, followed by normal days of perfection lucidity, when he would talk with you for hours. So basically different problems but still suffering and our struggle to cope seeing him suffer. You gotta be tough and hoping things will better, if they can and that he doesn't suffer much.

      Just when I thought it was all over after four months of nothing… it happens again. Went back to the hospital literally a couple of minutes ago. Ugh, this is almost as painful for him as it is for me seeing him in this state.

      Rugby Sevens WR SVNS 2024 - 2025

      By MatiReimundo · Posted

      With the Group Stage done in the final stop of the Challenger Series season, we know majority of the teams qualified to LA to play for the promotion to the 2025-26 SVNS.     In the Men`s, ,  and  qualified to the SF so therefore they are also qualified for LA. The 4th spot will be between and . The points difference is 2 points in favour of Chile, but Samoa qualified for the SF and Chile not. If the points awarded in this tournament is the same as the rest of the other events (its not clear yet),  will need a 2 position advantage, meaning that if they win one of the two matches they have tomorrow they will go to LA, or if they lose both matches and Chile lose at least one out of the two. In the case Samoa lose both and Chile wins both, there would be a tie (and i dont know the criteria there really).     In the Women`s, ,  and  qualified to the SF so therefore they are also qualified for LA. The 4th spot will be between  and . Colombia has the huge advantage with a 8 points difference. Thailand qualified for the SF. This means that  needs a 4 position difference for a tie and 5 to win. If  wins their first match tomorrow and  not,  qualifies. In case  wins too, the next match of each team is crucial, Thailand needs to win and Colombia to lose.
