**The Official 2008 Beijing Olympics Thread**
Here it is! Your thread to talk about anything and everything 2008 Summer Olympics! (Except politics. Lets please try and keep this strictly to the sporting events)
Looks like Soccer started yesterday officially. China is 13 hours ahead of Central time. So most of the live coverage will be middle of the night. Alot of NBC's primetime coverage will be tape delayed. Link to Yahoos Olympic site: http://sports.yahoo.com/olympics/bei...J7PK_KsSMSv5V4 |

This is actually pretty cool. I'd hate to be the country who has to follow this act, though.
Canadia, we expect you guys to spend a billion on your opening ceremony in 2010. Anything less is crap.

Apparently San Diego and Tijuana discussed a joint bid for 2016. It never materialized, but I think a binational Olympics would be awesometastic.
