LittleHurt05 Posted July 27, 2012 Author Share Posted July 27, 2012 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 27, 2012 -> 01:34 PM) From this point forward, if people are going to discuss Olympic events, please use spoiler tags if the event has NOT yet aired in the US. Thanks all! You might want to avoid Twitter during the day then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleHurt05 Posted July 27, 2012 Author Share Posted July 27, 2012 QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Jul 27, 2012 -> 01:31 PM) This is funny no matter what you think of the summer olympics. http://deadspin.com/5928972/the-haters-gui...summer-olympics I'm still cracking up about this: The opening ceremonies also serve as a dumbed-down "Let's Go" guide for tubby American Midwesterners who are never gonna travel abroad.

soxsoxsoxsox Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Can't believe NBC didn't broadcast the opening ceremony live. There was so much hype and so many people wanted to see it. Most just watched on streams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knightni Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 So, anyone watching the opening ceremonies? It appears that Spain lost a bet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuskyCaucasian Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 The opening ceremonies were pretty lame. The overall presentation was bland and WAY too much transition time between scenes. it didnt flow at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxbadger Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Just started watching on the DVR, but it was awesome that they put in the factory from the cover of "Animals" with the pig and briefly played Time, they really jammed a ton in there.

I thought their use of popular music thoughout the show was really great, especially the video montage and fireworks to "Eclipse" near the end. Sir Paul, however, sounded terrible.

Soxbadger Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Well most of it wasnt great, but they played Eclipse, to bad they couldnt have convinced them to actually perform live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Ok, so if these olympic athletes are having sex non stop, in an "orgy like atmosphere", according to Hope Solo, then where are the leaked videos/pictures? Of all the beautiful women at these events, and no sex tapes? What.The.Hell. Amirite? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
