Opening Ceremony

lol，i will watch the game live on TV the whole
Saturday and sunday。

 

i hate tape delay.

 

mu-wa-ha-ha-ha

this is where Canada CREAMS the US, CBC has live coverage for everything then reshows it at night and the French CBC carries other events live as well.
NBC always screws it up and it's sad how they blatantly cover only events that the US if favored to medal in too. CBC covers many different sports regardless of Canada's medal hopes.
I also get NBC too so it's more Olympic coverage for Canadians

 

I think it starts in about 20 minutes, obviously regardless of what time zone you're in

 

Man this sucks, I wake up in the morning, wait for the ceremony and nothing. USA television sucks.

This is why I want to go back to Europe.

Tell me about it. It seems whenever Scrubs or Family Guy isn't on, there's never anything good on. I have regular cable, too, but I still heard digital cable or satellite still sucks

 

I know perfectly, our 12Am is your 12pm thus our 8pm is your 8am.

 

Canada has it live.

 

Man, the ceremony was epic.

 

Watch it now guys, its on NBC.

 

I'm not going to lie, this is starting to get boring. The beginning was fantastic, though.

haha yeah, I was thinking the same thing. It's nice to look at...but I'm starting to wish I got tonight's preseason football.

What they need to have happen is Lebron come in wearing a Godzilla costume and start knocking people around.

edit: yes I know that's Japan.

 

yes,i watched it,but who is the flagman of the USA ?

I saw so many NBA players.

 

Here in the USA the players haven't even come out. We're at the part where the school children are learning that global warming is going to **** them in the future.

(I'm paraphrasing Lauer)

 

So...is that thing China's new deathstar, or am I being too literal with the space presentation?

A lot of the stuff we are watching doesn't make since because its a tribute to China and its heritage but to Chinese people, I bet the whole opening ceremonies has a lot of meaning.</div>

As someone who is familiar with Chinese history, I felt the opening ceremony was very well done. It does a great, artistic job of narrating China's historical accomplishments (gunpowder, compass, printing, paper, Silk Road, Great Wall etc).

By the time China's team arrives though, I was bored as hell. But the eventual lighting of the cauldron was epic.

 

The Opening Ceremony is awesome,i love it....how do you think about this Opening Ceremony
