Alright everyone, for those wondering, I was the masked individual in the Ceremony. 
 
Jokes aside, I don’t know how much I will get to interact with you all (or how much of the Games I will get to see for that matter) as I have been on the baseball commentator grind for the last couple of months.
 
My thoughts on the Ceremony:
 
Brave and unique, but nothing that should be replicated. It was sure special and breathtaking at times, but not something I want to see in an Opening Ceremony again
 
Parade of Athletes: NBC’s coverage was going to let me down from the start. Agree with many that the flag bearers seemed not important
 
Show: Quite French I guess?? A lot of culture to take in. The inter-twining of the parade and show was a little crazy and hard to keep track of.
 
Cauldron: A balloon?? But Celine Dion did save it in the end.
 
Overall: Satisfied but not thrilled. But that’s alright, the sports will do that.
 
THE GAMES ARE OPEN!!

Can I just say, I hate how most matches are determined by a toss of the coin. Let me explain for those of you who don’t follow badminton, in this tournament (Indonesia Open as another example) sides matter. During set one (and set three if it comes down to it) you’ll want to be on the side facing away from the crowd, as there’s a slight wind in the hall, which leads to very lopsided sets. Of course, that’s not always the case, but more often than not that’s how it turns out.
