olympics: find the fever




The Olympics start on Friday. Well, at least officially. A few events will start early, including women’s soccer today. On the schedule for tomorrow – men’s soccer. It is fun to see different countries compete for an event. Like others I know, I find some of the events boring - such as badminton or boxing. And like many others, events that I find exciting include track & field and swimming. Other events such as rowing and canoe/kayaking are not as exciting to others, but very exciting to me. Whatever the sport may be it’s hard to know when it is going on, especially with work and our busy lives. Well, until now. The NY Times added an Olympic Tracker with a customizable schedule to find out when every event is going on. Check it out!


Swimming and diving should be fun to watch whether the U.S. wins or not.


Opens and closing events don't need fireworks to make a big impression.
