Men should be allowed to compete in synchronised swimming. The fact that it's women only is sexist beyond comprehension.

Beach volleyball Beach volleyball is pretty fun to watch (I believe it's the sport where the girls are the most scantily clad? <3), but ultimately, volleyball
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>beach volleyball. The rallies tend to be fairly short
(Someone from team A serves, someone from team B digs, other player from B smacks it down for a point, I guess once in a while, you get a good block, etc.). It
is the only sport played on sand, and the beach setting is awesome.

Badminton. Oh and you're welcome for the picture. I just love all of the Olympic venues this time.

I know it's so cool right?
I couldn't find a good picture of the National Indoor Stadium but it needs more love than that picture gives it. |

"America's Favorite Sport" is most definitely football, but you are right MadHackViper baseball is "America's Pastime".

That is one of the main reasons I watch the beach volleyball GP. I guess we are alike in that way. I also like to watch the men's high diving. I wonder
why?

This thread falling into oblivion

Rowing Rowing is a pretty fun sport to watch. Especially the one event with 8 rowers. Watching 8 people heave as they row in perfect synchronicity is pretty damn impressive. It's also funny to watch that random guy or girl sitting at the end of the boat while everyone else is rowing
#11 
Canoeing There are actually 2 types of canoeing: flatwater and slalom. Flatwater is just a race (like rowing), whereas in slalom athletes have to weave their way through a course of hanging gates on river rapids as fast as they can. Both are great fun to watch, although I slightly prefer the more straightforward racing of flatwater canoe/kayak. In some way, this sport is doubly badass because of its 2 different sub-sports (if that makes sense), but there are 10 sports I enjoy more so this misses out on the top 10. |

I'm still paying attention to this thread Mal.
That is a pretty legit Top 10. I wouldn't fault any of the sports left to be named in the countdown. Every single sport left has some aspect of being interesting. |

Triathlon Watching triathlon probably isn't too exciting, but this sport truly is amazing. There people superheroes swim 1.5 km, bike for 40km and run another 10 km. That is pretty damn impressive. |

I would like to see swimming, one of my favorite Olympic sport. I watch it every 4 years including Asian and Southeast Asian Games.
