Olympics preprepreprepreprepregame thread.
What are you excited to see? Are you a fan of anyone competing? some olympic gifs or webms to share?
I'll probably watch the gymnastics for the lolis and maybe some of the basketball but that's it really.
Basketball, Volleyball, 100 meters.
Female Handball because Brazil has a good team.

The World cup wasn't like that.

Dilma did get booed. As for the rest, the rampant public spending was diluted around the whole country and ISIS hadn't issued any threats against us yet.
But I'll concede that with all the unrest going on at the time the WC failed miserably to deliver.
Can't wait to see that faggot Crispin Duenas choke again in archery

Guys I have a question regarding doping in olympics, maybe you can provide me with some inside.
Recently our media was talking a whole lot about the russian track and field athletes, the systematic doping and the subsequent exclusion from the summer olympics this year.
But if basically every Russian was doped the last years, wouldn't that mean that everyone else was, too? Because it's not like Russia won 100% of all medals and I can't imagine other Athletes being able to compete with roided up Russians if they didn't take anything themselves.
Am I overestimating the effect of doping here or is everyone doing it?
Kim Rhode is gonna win some more gold, and get a perfect score instead of 99 like last time.

I want to see if Usain Bolt can get another 3 gold medals for probably the last time, Volleyball is a good olympic sport too, I think I like outdoor volleyball better than indoor
>>68927753
>Challenge Bolt
Come on m8, Usain Bolt is literally the face of the Olympics

Russians were found with a substance that was banned starting this year, the substance is actually available over the counter in Russia. From what I have heard, there is no legitimate proof any "doping" was done this year. Could all just be still in the system from last year. I still hope no Russians go, but that's because I hope they don't get Zika.
Looking foward to:
>Bradley Wiggins' last go-around
>Athletics in general
>Road cycling
>Golf
>Badminton
Apart from the sport aspect:
>mass muggings
>Western reporter hostage situation
>Triathlete poisoning and subsequent drowning
>Zika epidemic spread to rest of world
>>68927852
>people will boo Temer
>"See? The people hates this undemocratic government! Vote Lula 2018"
>people booed Dilma in the WC

I'm expecting the thread to be completely horrible because everyone is going to be doing everything to force memes
What made 2012 so great was that no one was expecting it to be great. 2016 has 4 years of /sp/ hyping it up as one of the greatest things ever.
It's gonna be sticky thread quality.

except horseys, shooting, and most combat sports
