One of the MORE exciting things happening this summer are the OLYMPIC GAMES.
Have you ever dreamed of being an Olympic Athlete?
Would you participate in the SUMMER or WINTER Olympic Games?
What event(s) would you participate in?
Do you watch the Olympics?
Hopefully the Olympic Games happen!
Should the Olympics happen with NO FANS?
Would you be disappointed if they were cancelled?
Explain.
I've never dreamed of being an Olympian athlete (mostly because I'm not good at anything). I would actually prefer to play in the Winter Olympics (Haha no it's bot because I'm very Canadian). The best thing I'm at would probably be skiing. I'm not even that good at skiing but I do enjoy it very much. My family has always watched the Olympics. It's fun to watch. Sometime we don't watch certain sports but we watch most of them. I think there should still be the Olympics but with no fans, just like regular sports. I would kind of be disappointed if it did not happen because it seems like it has been forever since the last time we watched the Olympics.
ReplyDeleteI don't ski but I love to snowboard during the winter. Great blog!
DeleteSkiing is really fun, great blog!
DeleteNo, I have never dreamed of becoming and Olympic Athlete. I hate the cold and the sports I tend to enjoy are usually played in the summer so therefore I would participate in the Summer Olympics. I’ve never taken a big interest in the olympics so I can’t say what sport I would participate in if I had the chance. No, I won’t usually watch the Olympics, I’d have to be extremely bored if I ever did. The Olympics are usually always live streamed so I don’t see why everyone can’t just watch it from home. Again, I’ve never been a big fan of the Olympics so I would not be disappointed if they were cancelled.
ReplyDeleteI would also participate in the summer Olympics if I had the choice between that or the winter ones. Great blog!
DeleteI enjoy watching all the sports in the Olympics. If I were to participate in the Olympics, I would go to the summer Olympics because its warmer in summer. I would probably do athletics or climbing because those are sports I enjoy. If I was in winter Olympics I do snowboarding because I already know how and I enjoy it. I think they could do the Olympics with out crowds and just film it on TV to keep everyone as safe as possible. I would realy enjoy if the Olympics are not cancelled.
ReplyDeleteClimbing is fun. Good blog.
Deletei'd pick the warmer weather too
DeleteAt some point in my life, I dreamed of being an Olympic swimmer. I had been in a swim team for a while, and they told me that my strokes and movements were good, but I wasn't fast enough. That's when I decided I wasn't going to be an Olympian. I really like watching the Summer Olympics, because I find those events more interesting, like gymnastics and volleyball. I think the Olympics should be a televised event only. No one should risk getting the virus.
ReplyDeleteI agree that maybe for the near future they should keep it televised

ReplyDeletei don't think i have ever dreamed of being an olympic athlete. but if i were to participate in the games, it would probably be the ones in the summer olympics because it is for sure a lot warmer. but i guess if i were to participate in one of the sports, it would be one of the winter ones which is curling because it is pretty fun and simple to do. mostly because it's kinda chill and relaxing because you're not moving as much as other sports and its also fun. i actually have watched the olympics a few times but usually the winter ones because they are a lot more entertaining in my opinion. i think that the olympics should happen without fans because since they're always live-streamed anyways so fans can just watch from home to keep everyone safe.
ReplyDeleteI didn't really grow up watching the Olympics that often but if I ever were to do a summer sport I would probably try volleyball because iv'e always liked volleyball while playing in gym class and outside with friends, I never really dreamed about playing in the Olympics but when I was younger I did want to play for the WNBA or for NWSL which is the Women's national basketball and soccer league. I think the people who got vaccinated should be able to watch the Olympics in person but only later on when covid is mostly gone.
ReplyDeleteThat's cool that you would try doing the volleyball event. Great blog!
DeleteI don't usually watch the Olympics especially the summer once. When I was younger I had lot more interest in them than I do now. I have had the thought of becoming an athlete and what it would be like but I've never dreamed of it planned out my future being one. I do know that a lot of people would not be happy if the Olympics were cancelled. I don't think there should be Fans at the Olympics regardless if they got the vaccine or not. Just watch them at home on tv that is what most people do anyways. I wouldn't be disappointed if the summer Olympics got cancelled because I don't watch them. Especially because during the summer I watch a lot less tv than during the winter.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't say i'd PARTICIPATE since i'm really bad at sports but i'd love to be one of the audience in the Olympic Games. It would be really nice to sit and watch someone. I'd the swimming, diving, figure skating, ice hockey, gymnastics and fencing would be really cool to watch. Since I was born, I've been watching the Olympics with my family. It's a good way to distract myself from homework or chores or things like that. If the Olympics happened with no fans, that be safe and we watched it on TV which isn't that bad compare to other things.
ReplyDeleteI would love to be in the audience too, great blog!
DeleteWhen I was little and a lot more into swimming I had a goal to make it to the olympics. I think if I was really good at swimming It would be a dream to participate. But im not the best so that would not work out. I usually watch the winter olympics and its really cool to watch the skiers or snowboarders do flips. I mean I think that could be a good idea for some of the sports and let the show be online. I would personally not be too disappointed if they were cancelled.
ReplyDeleteYeah the flips and tricks from the skiers and the snowboarders are super cool!
DeleteMaybe when I was younger and still doing gymnastics, I probably dreamed about the Olympics, but now I don't think there's any sports that I would love to do to go to the Olympics. If I had to choose which Olympics I would want to be apart of, it would be the summer Olympics. I like most of the sports they have, but the Winter ones are also fun. I would participate in the softball Olympics because I love softball and it's a great sport that I play (and the season just started!). I love watching the Olympics. I usually only watch the sports I like, but still amazing. I think that it would be sad if the games got cancelled, but I would understand because of Covid. It would smart if there were no people in the stands.
ReplyDeleteSoftball would be a great choice! Great job on your blog!
DeleteI have always been an athlete so the Olympics sounds fun and challenging to be in. I think I prefer the winter Olympics because it has hockey in it, and I am a big fan of hockey. I have been playing hockey since I was 3 years old. If I were to participate in the Olympics I would probably do hockey. I usually watch the Olympics with my dad and lots of food. It all really depends on how the Covid situation is, but I think doing a sport without any fans watching it in real life isn't as exciting. I would be very disappointed if the Olympics were cancelled and so would be the athletes, because they have trained a lot.
ReplyDeleteNo i've never dreamed of being an olympic athlete because i find thats too much pressure and stress to deal with but if i were to be in the olympics i would definitely pick the summer olympics.I like the selection of sports more and i like the warmer weather.I would either do swimming or soccer.I love the olympics its always exciting to watch and keep up with ,i love seeing Canadians win.i think the olympics still happening without fans will still be good at least we could cheer on from over the screen.
ReplyDeleteI have never dreamed of being an Olympic athlete but if I ever participated in the Olympics it would most likely be the Winter ones. I would want to do the Skiing event but I would probably not win anything. If I participated in the Summer Olympics I would want to do a short distance running event. I like running a short distance rather than a long distance since I don’t have very good endurance. Running a short distance means putting all your force and energy into that one sprint so that means that I wouldn’t have to regulate what I do while running. I don’t watch the Olympics and it wouldn’t really matter to me if they were cancelled. I know that some people would hate if the games were cancelled; they probably shouldn’t be cancelled but if they were it wouldn’t bother me.
ReplyDeleteI agree short distance running would be much easier than long distance, good blog
DeleteWhen I was younger I dreamed that I would be an Olympic athlete. I always wanted to be a tennis player and participate in the olympics. Now when I think of it I want to be a physio/sports therapist for the olympic athletes. This has been my dream job for an extremely long time and is definitely a job I will consider and probably pursue after high school. I always watch the olympics, I love both summer and winter olympics. In winter I love watching the hockey and in the summer I love the gymnastics.
ReplyDeleteYa sometimes the gymnastics they do are really cool
DeleteI really never cared about sports, since I was never good at them and they never interessed me, so I never really cared for the Olympics either. If I had to join the olympics and HAD to do a sport, I would choose a sport like curling or snowboarding or something basic because I know how to snowboard already and curling seems kind of simple. I really wouldn't care if the olympics got cancelled and I think its a good idea to keep it online and have no one in the stands.
ReplyDeleteYa if I was in the Olympics my second choice would definitely be snowboarding.
DeleteI agree, sports have never really been a thing that interested me too much, other then 1 or 2.

ReplyDeleteI don't think I've ever really dreamed about olympic athlete as a child maybe but not for long. I would definitely compete in the summer olympics and the event would definitely be some sort of running related one. I do watch the olympics but not hardcore like I wouldn't be upset if I missed an event. I don't think that the olympics should have but then again there could be a lot of people vaccinated at the event. I really wouldn't be that upset if the olympics was cancelled.
I've never wanted to be an athlete, but if I had to pick from the winter of summer olympics I would pick the summer because I like to swim. I don’t usually watch the olympics but I do sometimes watch the winter ones. I think that there should not be any fans because why risk it. I wouldn’t be that disappointed if the Olympics were cancelled because I’m not that committed to watching them.
ReplyDeleteI have never wanted to go into the olympics, I always thought that I wasn't really good enough at any one sport to be able to do that for my life. If I really had to chose, I would probably do skiing, because it seems fun to be able to go down a mountain. I think that the olympics should proceed but without fans, because that is really the only thing that would make sense. The athletes will probably be vaccinated and tested by then, and as long as everybody is safe (ie wears masks outside of doing the sport and hanging out with teammates) They did it with the NHL and that went fine, I think that they should at least reimburse the people who bought the tickets to be able to attend this year though.
ReplyDeleteI've never been extremely good at sports either, great blog!
DeleteWhen I was younger I wanted to be in the olympics because I wad good at sports. If I had to compete in the olympics, I would wanna compete in the summer because I feel like there's more activities that I'm better at. I would probably wanna compete in track on long jump because I'm a fast runner, but not really for distance. I'm pretty sure I've watched it once when I was younger but it never really interested me. I don't think that there should be anyone there unless theyre necessary (maintenence people, people competeting, coaches, etc). I honestly wouldn't care if the olympics were cancaled because, like I said, I never really watched them.
ReplyDeleteI have never thought about wanting to be in the summer olympics or winter for that matter. I'm not a very sport-oriented person and things like that never appealed to me. I would probably compete in summer olympics. There are definitely more things I would be better at. If I absolutely had to, I would do badminton or something like that. I'm not extremely invested in the olympics, so it wouldn't bother me if they got cancelled or not.
