The Olympics start with a dark note that a Georgian Loge athlete was tragically killed during the final training run on Friday morning. :cry:

But on the good side the opening ceremonies were great and represented ALL parts of this land perfectly...

Unfortunately for you US viewers that were watching on NBC you never had the chance to watch the FULL ceremonies as the beginning was cut out for a damn commercial break. The beginning where the official welcome from the Heads of State of the First Nations was supposed to happen, NBC cutting this part out was IMO one of the rudest things they could have done. I understand they need to pay the bills but cutting this part of the program would be like CTV here cutting a speech by the US President if it was held on US soil or ANY head of state in any other country. To put it simply it was a HUGE smack of disrespect by NBC.

Everything happens for a reason, but sometimes the reason is that you're stupid and make bad decisions.

Heard my boy Roberto Luongo recorded a shutout against Norway today.

Luuuu!
Once upon a time, a man lived. This man was a man who really lived. He was the best there was at what he did, living. Living is what he did, and he did it well. In fact, he did it too well. He lived so well that he made other people stop living. That is why he had to be stopped. To stop him, they sent Rimo.
