Fucking opening ceremony is awsome!

Ain't no country can show the original progressive civilization over time like us, no one, some maybe bigger but we were the original and the model for many copcats, best country in the world!

If Bolt does it, thats a first, but is he at his best?

Bolt was beaten by another Jamaican recently, so doesn't look like he is at his unbeatable best. I'd say the 100m is wide open. Should be exciting to watch!

[Mr I]

you guys watching the opening, red arrows on now

[Mr I]

Well all in all this does stand to be a fantastic event and I'm proud its being held here.

100m is gonna be interesting, the olympic 100m title has only ever been successefully defended once and as it happens the winner didn't cross the line first, it was carl lewis defending his 100m title and ben johnson beat him but then was stripped of it and so Lewis got it by default.

If Bolt does it, thats a first, but is he at his best?

Stands to be the most dramatic 100m final ever in history!!

I dont have a favorite. I like track, swimming, soccer, cycling all the same. If i had to pick 2 it would be track especially the speed events that Usain is in. and swimming.

[Mr I]

What is everyone's favourite event?

[Bouncer]

If Phelps wins 3 medals of any kind he will be the most decorated Olympian of all time.
