I have attended gymnastics Olympic trials in 2016 and 2021 and have (way too expensive) tickets for 2024! But I also go to nationals and other comps as much as possible. I love gymnastics more than just during the Olympics.

Only accidentally if there is nothing else on TV and I'm looking for background noise.

I don't support the USNT and prefer to root for Germany, Italy, France, and Poland, so, not really, no. But I do watch all of the Games.

 

[CynBeth]

I just watch the Olympics.

I'm talking about the Olympic Team USA in general not the USMNT specifically. I'm surprised you don't support team USA in addition to the European teams.

Yeah, I know, I don't root for anything American. Just prefer the European teams. I'll sometimes root for Mexico, too, so that's at least in NORTH America. LOL

Rooting for Mexico's national team as a USA fan is a cardinal sin in American soccer.

Whenever I root for Mexico in the future, I'll hold my German passport in my hand so as not to be an American at that moment! LOL

I believe Germany's fans don't like EL Tri very much as well at the moment.

I'll watch some of them, especially some of the sports where not much attention is paid overall. This morning I've had on Table Tennis and Rowing. In a couple weeks are the Wrestling trials, that I will be watching quite a bit of.
