    one thing I was thinking while watching the parade of nations - so many beautiful people.

    and now I am having trouble deciding what to watch! so many choices - fencing, cycling, boxing, etc

    well, that was an odd finish to cycling road race, they let those two take the lead and no-one tried to chase them down.

    I am sure that we are getting mostly events that US are in. A lot online too from NBC, but that is probably US only too.

    That was the best opening show I have ever seen!

    Wow from the start with the animated dragonfly's journey along the Thames River,
    to that cool boat bringing in the torch, to the Queens arrival :D

    the history of the region, the way it was presented, just stunning
    creative, I cried, of course :lol:

    Loved the hospital and storybook part and that house with four decades of music very cool.

    Thank you we really enjoyed!

    And McCartney was good too ;)

    A lovely country with lovely people
    I am proud to know I come from peasant stock there :D

    the thing is Usa will win,cos simple,Croatia has only 5-6 good players,so they get tired and have fouls..
    Usa is better team and more full than Croatia..
    But Croatia is stronge team..congrats to them
