Hate to tell you this...but NBC has ONE MORE Games to do: the 2012 Summer Games in London. After that, their contract is up.
I’m not too sure anyone will bid on them after that.
Agree- enough of Bob Costas. Too much talking.
Maybe NBC will go out of business, god willing.
The second half of the ceremony was completely weird, to put it most charitably...
BTW...the song Nickleback did is ALSO the opening theme to WWE’s ‘Monday Night Raw’. How ‘bout that.
Kathleen O’Hara or whatever her name is was just bizarre.
I was just thinking how good Alanis Morissette was looking, and then I had to see the tramp stamp.
Are you referring to the piece where he said, “we are a people that know how to make love in the canoe which is why Canada’s health care system covers splinters”.
That’s not bragging, but it’s called “making fun of oneself” (a.k.a autoirony). It’s a form of irony that Americans usually don’t get.
“Irony can really be ironic sometimes.”
No I was referring to when he basically said that he was proud to be from a country that has childrens health care.

Good luck to him!
Thank you, he’s one of the team’s stars.
Dancing Mountiettes! The Maple Leaf Girls! Inflatable Angry Beavers! Flying Meese! A supersized table hockey game! Lumberjacks that are OK! And the Canadian Navy..er Frenchies in canoes!
Holy Crap!!
Agree.
The Sochi Presentation for 2014 Games in Russia was the best.
Woo-hoo! Congrats to your grandson! Did you see the game?
Um, congrats to Canada, too, I guess.

The last part was unintentionally (I think) hilarious.
If the face looks familiar, go waaay back a few years to Beetlejuice....
She was also in Best of Show....
Thank you nit! The game was in Dallas so I didn’t see it. My daughter called and today I got an email with a picture of the team.
I’m so glad we watched Killer Klowns From Outer Space instead. It’s the greatest.
‘will speed through ceremonies via DVR tonight.
