Who cares about the opening ceremony?

Meanwhile Mack Horton wins Australias first gold for the Olympics in the 400m freestyle.

I could not give a crap about the Olympics but I thought I'd check the basketball scores. I read this

The United States looked to be in big trouble in their first game after China got out to an early 2-0 lead, but they battled back and finished with a 119-62 victory.

I couldn't stop laughing. I went to check the box scores and saw Australia also won. I'm surprised Bogut actually suited up and the starters for France are really strong with Parker, Batum, Diaw and Gobert. That's actually a pretty good scalp.

Yeah I think France have the second best team, behind the US. Certainly the best player not on the USA team, in Batum. Although they barely even used him today which was strange. Nando de Colo is a pretty sick player too.

We're up against Serbia next and then I think the USA.

How about the Beach Volleyball stadium! Massive compared to what you would have expected.

Nothing better than kicking back on a Sunday night and watching the dressage.

I want to watch Croatia vs Spain but have no idea if they are showing a replay. Two new 6'ers recruits playing against each other in Dario and Sergio.

Big Nigey pointed out /r/ohlympics to me on reddit, a touch nsfw though :P

Grab the App "Olympics on 7" and you can watch replays (a day later I think)

I missed the AUS v FRA basketball game and am now watching the replay on the app
