Beijing Olympics 2008

[King Ellis]

Shit, we better spoiler tag all our posts, they need the anticipation of waiting for America to come out.

[Maxx]

I'll be at work, won't care.

[King Ellis]

I was joking anyway.

Time for fire?

Another trickle of fireworks for you Slogger.

Flag first I guess, then fire.

Oh shit, he's on a trapeeze! He's gonna fly!

FIRE! ^_^

Now there's your fireworks display.

I only saw the end where Li Ning lit the massive torch, but I couldnt believe that, it was spectacular.

I might stay up to see it tonight, what events are first?

[Katsuya]

I do believe that the Equestrian and Gymnastics dominate a bit today...

[IAceI]

There isn't a hope in hell that we're going to be able to have a better opening ceremony than that.

[Guest Mr. Potato Head]

Lucky for you that it's our job to follow it, not yours.

[DavidMarrio]

Our ceremony will be crap absolutely crap lol with our ghetto Olympic logo. Certainties involve guards with the tall hats marching, Maybe black cabs or a double decker red bus or something stupid.

I hate it being in China cause of it being on at like 2,3 in the morning grrrrr

[GhostMachine]

I'll say one thing: I don't watch the Olympics much but the Summer Olympics > The Winter Olympics. Figure Skating is a joke due to the corrupt and incompetent judging and Curling is a waste of tv time. None of the Summer Olympics are really all that boring.

[Crybaby Bunting]

Knowing us we'll get 15 people to form the shape of a knife and still mess up the movements >_>

[IAceI]

I don't think you can really compare the Winter Olympics to the Summer Olympics in the slightest. The only really interesting thing I see is Ice Hockey.

As far as I'm concerned, we're following on from Beijing's efforts at the opening ceremony, not Canada. The Winter Olympics don't come close to measuring up to the Summer Olympics.

[Guest Mr. Potato Head]

I don't understand how many people can blaspheme the great sports of curling, luge. bobsled, skeleton, and maybe ski jumping.

[JStarr]

Ski jumping only reached its peak with the "Agony of Defeat" guy on Wide World of Sports.

It will never be relevant again.
