I love the Olympics. I kind of watch it for the reasons Adam mentioned (that these people train for 4 years and most fail), but I primarily just like seeing how amazing the athletes are. As for the comment about how the Olympics should just be on every week if they're so great, it wouldn't make them as entertaining. You have to train for a specific event in order to be the best, and it usually doesn't take less than a few years to prepare. Also, they have world competitions every year anyway, so athletes use that to determine around what position they are in before knowing what they have to achieve in the Olympics. People shouldn't take them so seriously, but it is awesome when someone from your country (or even other countries) gets to the podium.
