I just got through watching the opening ceremonies at Sochi. All that Tchaikovsky they played? Tchaikovsky was totally gay.

I was watching that whole history of Russia thing, which was amazing, really, and I was wondering what Russia has given us in popular culture. TaTu?

Agreed, for the most part. I appreciated the commentary from the Russian historian, that was good. But everything else? Shut up and let us listen.

I'm all about the spirit of the Olympics. The NBC people continually pointing out that ring that didn't open at the beginning really rubbed me the wrong way.

Yup. They seemed to be gloating over it. I was bummed. That whole thing was really neat.

Agreed. The commentary was, by and large, the biggest fuckup of the ceremony.

Also, Chris Collinsworth? Really? The only good thing about football season being over is that I don't have to listen to that dickwad. Now I have to put up with him for another two weeks? BOLSHEVIK

You're making my night worse, are you telling me that bitch is doing Olympics coverage? As an Eagles fan, I swear that fucker hates us.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, guy. I heard his shrill voice early on and prayed I was having flashbacks or something. Unfortunately near the end my fears were confirmed as I saw his overly angular, vulture-like visage interviewing one of the US athletes.

This pains me greatly, although I love your apt description.

Anyone else disturbed by so many of the athletes doing the Apple salute? You're on fucking TV, you don't need to record it yourself. Represent your country without looking like self-absorbed asshats.
