I ain’t gonna front, I’m pretty stoked about the upcoming Beijing Olympics. It’s great cause we’re getting pay per view, so I’m going to get a chance to watch a lot of games.
I guess there’s something about the Olympics that appeals to me. Even back in the day, from the ‘92 Olympics onwards, I’ve always looked forward to it. I guess there’s something about it being such a big sporting event, that it gathers so many people of diverse backgrounds and cultures. Another thing that draws me to sports is that sense of camaraderie, and most especially that sense of pride, most especially if you are representing an institution or even an ideal and in the case of the Olympics, your country.
I’ll be intently watching the basketball matches but during the Olympics, I tend to be drawn into the other sports that I don’t usually watch such as gymnastics, track and swimming events. This year should be as, if not even more, exciting as the previous years.
One World, One Dream
