            The later show was edited and covered a little better than live. Except for this end part- they kept all of the "U-S-A" chanting, and left out the end of the show with a cool dance off as well as the end of the fashion show. Both of which added a lot of different people to the show. Oh, well.

              Oh and they did edit a lot. Which actually was a good thing- there was some really, really long coverage of one thing that really didn't need that much time to get from A to B. One thing we got out of this was that you could tell that they were not able to run through this show, which showed up in some blocking and timing of the presentation. Not that I blame them, as the show Paris put on was really awesome- moreso when it was the first run of the whole thing, and much of the bigger parts were never rehearsed.

                I appreciate Serena and all. But isn’t there a
                better summer Olympiad who is more Olympic than pro legend? Nadia got the first 10. Carl matched the great Jessie Owens with 4 T&F golds in one games. Serena won some golds. Then again, Rafa?

                  Some grimacing about the Tonga flag guy not being the Tonga flag guy this time around. I’m straight, but I get it.

                  He did carry the torch at some point, but he did so with a shirt on.

                    Do the people there see the whole Assassins Creed crap with the torch? I want to see just what is going on there. Which I'm assuming does not include any Minions.

                      I loved the "spirits" or whatever they were. I thought it was an excellent thread throughout the evening.

                        All and all a brilliant opening ceremony. The cauldron is the best I've ever seen. Who pitches a grand piano engulfed in flames on a boat in the river? Genius.

                        NBC is utter trash. Probably the worst I've ever seen in terms of selective censoring and failing to cover the athletes from all over the world. Instead focusing on the superstars and celebs, which was an extremely, extremely weird thing. Peyton Manning and Kelly Clarkson were a complete disaster.

                          So as it turns out, it was Assassin's Creed characters. Ubisoft is a French studio. They were the ones who had done all of the insanely detailed scans of notre dame before the fire and gave them to the French government to help rebuild the cathedral.

                          love it.

                          edit: as it turns out. This is a myth. They donated cash. But no models. :-(

                                Really difficult condition for the women's time trials. The road is wet enough that there are a lot of crashes.
