Or cut out the part that drags on for too long, and takes away from the artistic value of the ceremony.

Yeah, they definitely didn't do that. I've been hearing some monotonous humming for some time now, with what I guess is a performance by the local school kids to try and get a good grade or something?

I think it's one of the scandals I've heard most about...

 

I believe you immediately, but it's just really not in the kind of stuff I watch or read about, so it's quite easy to miss when one barely watches the regular news and so on :d

A wonderful artistic performance, that’s been largely uninterrupted by a monotonous parade.

Dammit Villeta came too soon :(

 

p.s. it's Sandro Viletta, not Villeta...;)

 

p.p.s. just seen the Olympic Channel broadcasting schedule...I can't believe that not a single second of Cross-Country Skiing and Biathlon (or Speedskating) are going to be broadcasted...:yikes::facepalm::wall:

 

it's only Alpine Skiing (not even all the events, for instance tomorrow's Super-G for both boys and girls are not in that list), Curling, Figure Skating, Hockey and a few Freestyle/Snowboard events...the other disciplines basically don't exist for the Olympic Channel (at least, for what I can see here from Italy)...:(:facepalm::nopompom::hairpull::thumbdown::redcard:

    • Pink takes down the ever consistent  Lee by 0.03 
    • Big Air WC Beijing | Beijing, China   Women Gold-  Tess Ledeux (168.25) Silver-  Sarah Hoefflin (163.00) Bronze-  Flora Tabanelli (159.50)   Men’s podium according to FIS, because it’s not the actual podium   Men Gold-  Leo Landroe (183.00) Silver-  Miro Tabanelli (182.25) Bronze-  Dylan Deschamps (181.00)   … not sure how Deschamps is on the podium, when Harrington has a 183.00 combined score? He had the highest single run score out of the two as well, so he should’ve been the winner but instead he finishes 4th. I’m so confused…    A great day for the Tabanelli siblings, with both of them on the podium!   Full Results
    • 91.75 + 92.25 is 183.00, is it not??  Harrington should be tied for the lead alongside  Frostad, and not 4th?  WTF, I’m so confused… 
    • Really exciting men’s competition 
    • Another WC podium for  Flora Tabanelli 
    • I’ll start first;   Obviously,  @brunamoura in cross country skiing if she qualifies  (no pressure)    Curling:  Team Hasselborg and Team Edin,  Kaldvee/Lill, and to a lesser extent  Team Fujisawa and  Team Schwaller Ice Hockey:  Sweden men’s team,  Arturs Silovs/Teddy Blueger, whichever Canucks are on  United States’ men’s team, and  Finland’s men’s team if Lankinen can keep up his good play (Even though he’s probably going to get traded from the Canucks after this season, he prefers being on a team where he can get more starts than more money. Still I have a soft spot for him) Alpine Skiing:  Marco Odermatt,  Aleksandr Aamodt Kilde Freestyle Skiing:  Jakara Anthony,  Birk Ruud,  Sina Sigenthaler,  Andri Ragettli Snowboarding:  Leon Ulbricht,  Marcus Kleveland,  Anna Gasser Speed Skating:  Jutta Leerdam,  Jordan Stolz Luge:  Thomas Steu/Wolfgang Kindl,  Tobias Wendl/Tobias Arlt   From a Canadian perspective, I’m rooting for our men’s hockey team above all. Then, our curling teams, especially Team Homan if she wins Olympic Trials. Then Max Parrot, Mikael Kingsbury, Eliot Grondin, William Dandjinou, our women’s hockey team, and our ski cross squad. But really I’ll be rooting for all of our athletes. 
    • Decided to start a thread on this early, and get some discussion early    When I mean athletes, I mean athletes from other countries mainly… but ones that represent your country work too

(thanks @Gianlu33 for the stat)    Full Results
    • Interesting day in Muaythai...    were the only NOCs to send female athletes in the sport. However, they split the medals evenly, with both NOCs winning two golds.
