I'm following the inauguration ceremony. I wonder why Bahrain is in a very small boat instead sharing a big one like all the other teams.

I know there's no way to "know" this but I'm quite certain there a lot of people who go out of their way to watch the opening ceremonies and then skip the actually competetions........I mean I still get goosebumps thinking of the one in China that Zhang Yimou handled a few years ago........the spectacle was amazing that year

Nice and simple. And having the March of Nations first was great, allowing the athletes to actually be in the audience instead of sit elsewhere until it finished.

That 100m mens breaststroke final was a hell of a race from Martinenghi spoiling Adam Peaty's big comeback Speaking of British sporting heroes, 4 miles down the road, Andy Murray and his shorter balder sidekick saved 5 match points to win their doubles match and extend his career another couple of days. Speaking of old kings on their last legs, Rafa, on his court for maybe one of the last times didn't look very good but lived to fight another day. That day being tomorrow, against an opponent with two days off. What a truly smart bit of Olympic scheduling. Speaking of Serbian sportsmen, the actual best of them all couldn't stop his boys getting rolled over by a team that started not one, not two, but three NBA MVP's, and had another one coming off the bench. Speaking of never in doubt, that wind-up toy Simone Biles looks ready to roll over the competition again after wetting the bed 3 years ago. No goats stitched into her outfit this time. Speaking of laughable bullshit, in the absence of the Russian gymnasts, the Italians ran the evil empire as close as anyone. Good for them. Speaking of, I dunno, Ari the Titmouse surely nailed on to become first person, lad or lady, to win the 200 freestyle at the Olympics twice. History beckons.
