Official Olympic thread

Figured I would start an official thread to discuss the Olympics.









Also can we have a sticky?

No Shawn Johnson? I guess I'm not watching gymnastics

Really looking forward to Men's and Women's volleyball this year. I started playing it in high school 3 years ago. Also Matt Anderson is from western New York so I want to cheer for him

Re: Official Olympic thread

Anyone else watch the opening ceremony?

Tbh I thought wasn't that great for the amount of money it would have cost and not anywhere nearly as good as Beijing or Sydney.

Opening ceremony was just way too slow. Even the Mr. Bean part was like 10-15 minutes too long.

I agree, but it still went on too long. The whole thing was boring. He was funny for awhile but then it just got to be too much.

Edit: And I am THAT guy...

Re: Official Olympic thread

*yawn* I really dislike the commercial breaks that cut off the parade of nations. I realize we have to make some money, but I'd like to see all the nations and here about their athletes, people, and culture.

Re: Official Olympic thread

Independant Olympic Athletes? Competing without representing a country? What the ****?

I thought you were sick or something, dude. I haven't seen you post in a long time.

I'm a little underwhelmed, but it is entertaining seeing how people from other countries look and dress. Some look like they are happy to be there and others look like they are mad at the world.

Mentioned it in OT, but I'm scoping out the women too.. lol.

Are there more than just the runner who is American, but isn't an official citizen due to paperwork, and his home country doesn't have an Olympic committee?
