Open Thread: 8/9, Summer Games!

The events actually start today!  I think we have a little bit of everything.  Rowing, saber, swimming, beach volleyball, etc.

Those opening ceremonies were a bit long for my taste so I'm definitely ready to watch some athletic competition.

USA! USA! USA!

Did you guys watch Team Handball last night?

Absurd game but very fun late-night viewing

I don't quite understand what the sport's about

I need to do more research, but it looked like a lot of people bumping into each other.

I love Team Handball

The U.S. should totally dominate that. It’s a hybrid of hoops, soccer and hockey.

When I lived in Denver, I got to go down to the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs and play. If you’ve played basketball or soccer, it’s pretty easy to pick up and a helluva lot of fun.
