Corn Flakes: Big Ten Media Days, and the Olympics are Almost Here!

The wait is almost over! The Olympic opening ceremonies are Friday night and then this weekend we get watch both swimming and gymnastics.

As, I’ve stated previously, I am just in awe of the amazing abilities of these athletes and I love to get to cheer them on.

How do you feel about the Olympics?
