Have you seen that they're trying to make Poker a sport on the Olympics?
Also, did ballroom dancing become an Olympic sport?

On a different note: I have the Sports Illustrated Olympic Issue with me & it is got to be one of the better ones. Yeah they do focus a lot on the American athletes but there's this really neat section that speculates and talks about who the favorites are to win the events. It's really neat. Plus, there's also talk as to who on earth is going to light the torch. That's always fun to watch & I'm getting excited for this Friday.
I'll be moved in & my cable hooked up so I can hole myself up in my room & watch.
Honestly, I'm one of those people that keep the TV on almost 24/7. The opening games are always fun & my poor boyfriend is going to have to stay & watch with me instead of going out.
I'm rooting for the US mens & womens gymnastics team & I'm really hoping that we have an American woman win the gold all-around medal. The first & last one we had was Mary Lou Retton so I think we're due. It's been 20 years!

Who is the favorite to win badminton, both men and women?
