I went to the Montreal summer games in 1976. My father made sure we saw a wide variety.

Velodrome cycling
Diving
track and field
Soccer
Basketball (saw the US beat Russia in the finals)
Women's gymnastics (Saw Nadia Comaneci get her perfect 10!)
I was only a few months old

Saw Nadia Comaneci's story on TV though. I think the Beeb did a series on her.
Got to see quite a bit of the 76 Olympic team as they stayed here in Plattsburgh practicing before heading up to Montreal.

I thought they only stuck to the south, with trips to Watkins Glen and the Infineon Raceway being the exceptions.
They actually run two Nascar races at NH every year and this year IndyCar is back there as well.

Excuse me?! Did you see the Indy cars race on the street last weekend?!

I wont tune into a series only for the few races they run on a road course (I am aware that the cheater Dario won by putting Will Power in the wall ). For me its F1 and Continental Tire Challenge Series (our very own version of touring cars). Ovals are fun for the driver I'm sure, but to me personally they are monotonous.

There is a reason why the Tour De France is more entertaining than Olympic Indoor Cycling
There are certain races that can be interesting, lots of strategy, even coming to nearly a complete stop to
get the other guy to make the first move before the quick sprint to the finish.

But, I think curling is entertaining so what do I know?
