I want to start an olympic pick 'em game, which I can devise the schedule of, etc. We'll predict all sports, including all matches in all tournaments. However, I will need someone to score for it me as I do not have the time to do it. If anyone is interested in scoring this, I will start it. If not, I won't run this one.
 
I usually enjoy the 4 year event, especially week 2 and the athletics. This cycle seems different with corono and no spectaculars at the events. No buzz, the crowds always lift the athletes to new heights. Tokyo has put so much effort into the festival, and billions of dollars. I am sure the hosts will do there best, i am just not feeling it this year.

Paris 2024 😁

It sounds like you are excited to do it. I hope you can find lots of people to play. I just dont know enough about most of the sports.
 
Like I said, I need someone to volunteer to score it, and I can run it besides that -- scoring is the easy part since all you would have to do is check the scores and do math. I'd make the schedules and show how many points each event is worth, etc.

I run too far behind the actual event for me to do it. I have some outstanding games that go back years. :p
 
Ladies field hockey will go to the Netherlands
Female road cycling gold medal to the Dutch plus maybe silver, or bronze (cannot name a favorite, we have too many)
Swimming open water gold for Ferry Weertman
Sifan Hassan is a favorite for gold for the 5 or 10k athletics

Some predictors say we are possibly going to win 16 gold. We will gold medals in sailing, swimming, cycling, track and field, cycling on the track, surfing, BMX racing.
