Subject description: the Olympics approach do you care?
 

Heh, my question is really about why they only show certain events. I'm not asking the network to show all of the events, that would be impossible and too costly.

Personally and this is just my opinion. I'm sick of watching events like swimming. Like come on!?! whats so exciting about a group of competitors swimming from left to right? Granted its a little exciting at the end but for the most part its boring.

I'd like to see something like Tae Kwon Do, Wrestling and Fencing but thats just me. I wonder who gets to pick the events to be shown though, any thoughts is great, thanks!
