Regarding the Olympics: Do you root for your country? Or, for the individual?

Country first.

Uganda.

I route country. I’m not interested in Usain Bolt for instance, to show boat around after a victory. However, with that being said, I don’t hate the guy. I’d just prefer an American to win any competition. But of course respect towards the winner regardless.

Mostly I root for my country but if my country isn’t represented in a particular event I just want the best person to win. I’m stunned and delighted by how well Britain is doing this year. Maybe everyone’s fired up because they’re on home turf.

I just watch NBC. That way i can ignore the other countries.

I’m with you. I’m from the US, but have have been very impressed with the Chinese divers for example.

I route for the guy I think is most atttractive… or if I think he is gay I route for him. I have no interest in womens sports.

I almost forgot about the olympics this year :D I’d rather sweat than watch other people sweat…

My own.

@mowens that’s why my favourite events are men’s swimming and men’s gymnastics…

The individual. Why would I root for people coming together to represent where they were born? There’s no American athletes or Chinese athletes.

I root for Great Britain first and foremost but I still have a lot of support for the individuals. I certainly look forward to watching certain Athletes compete regardless of where they are from, Usain Bolt for example.

I have a couple of friends competing this year so it has been about the individual achievement more so than ever.

How ‘bout GB? Wow!

Team GB is doing absolutely brilliantly.

I supported all female Muslims who participated.

All over. Oh, well…
