At least they opened up all the streams unlike beijing, though still some of their decisions still suck, and nbc live extra is available for chromecast and roku..... but their primetime bs is so annoying and discriminating against us pacific coasters

It's going to start at 20:16 BRT (clever).


And waving our flag is... Andy Murray...

The one that wanted to not be British and declare Scotland independent

Oh well. Go on then Andy.

As now we come across the world
To share these Games of old
Let all the flags of every land
In brotherhood unfold

There is speculation that Pele won't lit the cauldron because he's the face of Santander bank in Brazil and the sponsor bank of the olympics is Bradesco...

 

Doubtful. He was in very bad shape a while back so I believe his statement about health problems. Anyway, I'm happy other athlete will do the honor.

He was a great athlete, but if you're gonna choose someone to do this honor, I think it's better to pick someone who was an Olympian. Plenty of great people to choose from.
