Are there specific categories you want to see included like 100 m Freestyle or 200 m Backstroke?

Picking one specific sport out of all of them is quite hard , but i will go with tennis.

You don't have to choose just one, but they have to be particular events and not general categories. i.e you can choose 100m, 200, 400m and not just "sprint" or "track and field"

We want your opinion on what you find as the most interesting events and would like to see included.

lol. i think if someone enjoy 100m he will also enjoy 200m since it's generally the same guys. for example i expect to see Usain bolt in almost all those category, same goes for swimming. It's kinda the same. But i think one must specify male or female. For example in basket i didn't specify but i'm talking about the male basketball :derp

Well then specify :-_-

I'd like to include BMX, M 100m sprint, M Javelin, and some diving category.

Or does my vote even count?

Olympic tennis is even worse than Olympic football, but I'll watch both. I'm interested in Olympic football for the new transfers across the EPL and I'm hoping Serena and Djokovic take home the trophies in tennis; Nadal bowed out of the Olympics with injuries, which is definitely a disappointment.
