The opening ceremony is underway, very impressive light display earlier, no way London 2012 can match that. Oh, and the BBC kept the Monkey intro for their opening credits.  |

That was a damn good opening ceremony, great way to light the flame.
However the introducing the teams pageant went on forever and there were no dragons, nine out of ten.

Geez... the Olympic Soccer tournament is sure exciting compared to Euro2008  They should have amateur teams playing, instead of U-21 sides... At least it would be amusing and unpredictable, instead of second-rate and uninspiring. Do you honestly just come in here to complain about soccer.? |

Since it's the only Olympic discipline already underway, yes I do... When other events will take place, I'll complain about them as well. Just be patient  |

After looking at ESPN.com, Michael Phelps really reminds me of Tim Cowlishaw.
