We're in a Sporty Spice mood.

The opening ceremony of the 2012 Olympics takes place today in London and we're pretty stoked. Will the women's soccer team get another gold medal? Will Michael Phelps perform anywhere close to the level of perfection he achieved in 2008? And will Danny Boyle's influence on the Opening Cermonies make it feel like a mashup of Slumdog Millionaire and Trainspotting? Only time will tell. But it got us thinking. If we hosted our own version of the Olympics in Hayes Valley, what games would you include (real or made-up)? And where would you hold them? Name your event and tell us all about it.
