    Besides America, if your an American, what other Countries are you going to be cheering for this month as the Olympics are being held in China?

    My other teams are: Canada, England, and Finland.

    ALL of Them...Don't have a preference as to who wins as long as "good sportsmanship" is the winner...after all...the Olympics were started to create a global "comraderie"...and the fact that they are even competing says that they are GREAT athletes!!!

    Thumbs up Re: Olympic Teams!

    definately all americans should cheer for the outstanding sportsperson from all over the world,because sports should be kept out of politics & politicians.

    Canada for me, although the summer olympics are not as good as the winter olympics for getting medals (for us).....we may see a few medals in canoeing & kayaking,...other than that, may the best person win, I always like to see the hosting country win some, and it's extra special for China....so I am hoping it goes well.

    It's lovely to watch the competetors getting along so well, no matter what their standard, sport, or where they are from. If only the rest of the world was the same.

    Oy, all your mates across the pond, your practically from The U.K now, so support us Warty.

    Actually our best ever results in the olympics and maybe more golds to come. The cycling is by far our best event, we are just getting gold after gold.

    You know you are right......they should do that, I think I will write them a note on this....

    Dear Olympic Committee:

    I am writing to you in hopes of your consideration of these two new competitive sports.....gravy slurping & broom thwacking.....I am sure the competition will be entertaining.

    thank-you
