What we thinking about the opening ceremony so far

I'm listening to music on YouTube mate.

I'll try and watch:

Boxing
Judo
Wrestling
Tae Kwon Do (is that in it, yeah?)
Rugby 7's

Maybe Golf

Possibly gymnastics

[Haak]

I'm sure our ceremony went on longer

Team GB smashing the gymnastics qualifying round

The boxing is infinitely more watchable without headguards.

Christ, that crash in the cycling looked horrific. She genuinely may be paralysed or dead.

I've watched bits and pieces, caught some fencing earlier. No idea what was going on because you can't even see the 'sword'.

I saw some of the Canoe Slalom, and just wondered what must have happened the night before they woke up and decided to take it up. Random.

Saw a good British boxer win by stoppage earlier as well, first stoppage of the Olympics so far.

Are the BBC not showing the Olympic football this year? They did 4 years ago, but saying that Great Britain were actually in it then

[ARW]

Took me 15 minutes to navigate the BBC Olympic site to find the stream for Algeria vs. Argentina http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/live/olympics/36890225

[Cumbrian]

Football shouldn't be in the Olympics imo. Or I'd make it a 5 a side competition at least.

[Cumbrian]

Same with tennis.

Edit - I wouldn't make tennis 5 a side.
