I really don't know which is my favourite sport. As I was a Judo enthusiast, I really enjoyed watching the Olympic fights. I also was amazed by the Swimming competitions and the Athletics.

It's obvious that taking part in the competition is way more important that winning medals, although not everyone agree with this.

Also the Olympic Spirit, the Sportsmanship was seen in Beijing. When The mast on the Danes' boat broke shortly before the start of the sailing medal race, and they rushed back to port and borrowed a skiff from the Croatian team, which failed to make through the competition and wasn't going to compete. The Denmark team won the gold medal.

I agree that sportsmanship's the most important thing.
The story of the borrowed skiff's really amazing!

I also agree with Renan,gaining medals is not the most important,but winning them would be very good.
I love to play and to watch volleyball, but I prefer basketball.
