Was anyone else disappointed with the BBCs coverage of the Olympic opening ceremony? I thought that mentioning Sudan as a war torn country, while ignoring Sierra Leone, Haiti, Zimbabwe, Liberia, and others. Also, while various countries were entering the stadium, we werew shown pictures of British athletes sitting watching television in Cyprus. Come on BBC, get your act together!

Living in the USA, I watch Olympic coverage on NBC.

The opening ceremonies were nice, but for God sake I wished Bob Costas and Katie Couric would just shut up already! They droned on and on with the stupidest comments...LOL.

At one point, Couric made a stupid remark about one of the Greek uniforms...the one with the 400-pleat skirt: "I'd hate to iron that." Then Costas said something about having it dry-cleaned. Rolling Eyes

The best Olympic commentator of all times is the late Jim McKay.
