2016 Olympic Games

At least if they are all on drugs it's a level playing field.

I like the Olympics but seldom watch the paralympics although I might this time as the TV advert is brilliant. Top marks for the company that came up with that.

I'm expecting Russia to do well.

That's a decent enough reason not to watch it as the IOC have chickened out and let some of the drug-laden Russians to take part. I'll watch the opening spectacle- loads of scantily clad ladies doing samba- but will watch little else.

In terms of events worth watching for the Olympics I enjoy the velodrome cycling events, the track events (field events are shit), probably watch tennis if it's on.
Most of the other stuff unless the tele's on and there's a Brit in it I'll swerve.
Hopefully some Russian whose immune system's shagged through all the state fed drugs will contract the Zika and take it home to the football hooligans.
