Olympic Ceremony

Postby Jeffro » Fri Aug 13, 2004 9:58 pm

I just wanted to open up a discussion thread about your thoughts on the Olympic Ceremony.

My thoughts:

I found that the announcers were very annoying and irritating. The male annoucer made some asinine comments about a country's outfit and he also made another comment making fun of a country's name.

The female annoucer kept making negative statements about the hardships of some countries, and no positive statements.

I am appaled at this and I think they should be fired.


:mad:



I missed the United States entrance, but chances are, we were booed.

No, we got the loudest cheer of all. The announcer commented on how the Greeks didn't agree with USA's policy's since Regean(sp?)/Nixon but they seperate the citizens.... :roll:

Yes, the announcers did suck.:ar15: :ar15:

i think after his 15 olympics, Costas is saying "man, this is getting old"
"Whats the Situation?" "Two blokes and a fuckload of cutlery!"

Besides the cornballish 'art' show I can't get over how scary that greek hostess womans face is. It's scarier then Doom 3.

The True face of evil even.

Nrew Zeland had some pretty hot female athelets. I'm scocked and appauled that Costas didn't point that out.

I didn't like the announcers either, when he was talking about Croatia, i believe, he said that the Croation Government is rewarding all their gold medalists with $1 Million Dollars, and the announcer followed it with "the government won't have to pay much".

You post a lot, and your opinion doesn't matter much.
