I don't get why Spain are so crap at the olympics. They are basically a world super power in sports right now with an amazing football team and superstar athletes in cycling, tennis, golf and basketball amongst many others. Yet at the olympics they are some also ran nation getting beat by the likes of kazakhstan and north korea. It's not like this was even a bad year for them, 5 golds is about their level.
think people were expecting freddie to appear in the same way lennon did tonite. Or have a rock singer doing it instead of a pop one. Wouldnt have minded seeing the who try it
Sidenote... It's been said that BBC has had much better coverage of the olympics than NBC has, but this probably isn't one of them thanks to their Mo Farah homerism.

I'd have to say this little gem
Boris is retraining himself. We'd know if he was properly dgetting down with it. Cameron on the other hand is obviously trying to loosen up but failing miserably in a vain attempt to look human.
NBC's coverage was complete bull imo. Butchered BOTH Opening & Closing ceremonies, had horrendous "primetime" coverage, putting the biggest events with the most profilic athletes near 11PM ET just for damn ad revenue, Had taped events ON THE WEEKENDS, their online streaming was complete crap. Ryan Seacrest only there for the damn Social Download or whatever, spotty inane commentary in some events...and don't get me STARTED on how they treated the closing ceremony...
