I feel like I'm one of the few people that doesn't get bored during the procession. Just watching the athletes' faces is my favorite.

USA! I love this country.

Arctic Monkeys sound fantastic.

I think I say this every time, but this is definitely the least hyped Olympics I've seen since 96... No one seems to care about it at all from what I've hear.

That's because in '96 it was held here.

Water polo is the only sport I care about.

Lolo would get it.

As it was when it was held in Utah, but even then it didn't really seem like anyone cared here. The Olympics are a joke. Nothing but corporate sellouts. Nothing like what it was meant to be.

What is this, the Grammy's? I feel like any athelete who's competing in the Olympics would be very upset about that comment. I don't know, but im pretty sure they work their asses off to be the best in the world, literally, the world, at their sport. It might be sponsored by McDonalds or Ameritrade, but no one is "selling out" and it's still meant to be what it was meant to be - to be the best athelete possible and prove it.

oh we're talking in here instead of the sports forum..that's cool

i thought the opening ceremony was one of the greatest things i've ever seen. I was in aww the whole time and the only way to describe the whole thing was "beautiful"
