LOL - latest tweet from Drudge:

A miracle! NBC just went 5 1/2 minutes without a commercial break. #OpeningCeremony

I'm watching Trump on livestream and checking tweets....

Wretch worthy.

Im just watching for when the stadium collapses or bursts into flames or maybe raw sewage will be pumped into the stadium.

My favorite was Barcelona when the archer lit the flame. That was cool.

I always loved Athens patent through their history.

But China blew everyone away.

NBC tried to change the order of the Parade of Nations for better ratings. The IOC said no.

I truly think that whoever put this production together was trippin’ on acid.

The narrators,meanwhile, are drooling with joy. :-)

To think for once the games were in a time zone where it could be shown live, and NBC still doesn’t do it. I hate them.

It was much better when ABC did them.

I really wish NBC would stop interrupting the commercials with the Opening Ceremonies.

I had to quit watching because there were too many commercials. So far, it's been about 11 minutes of actual programming crammed in between 39 minutes of commercials. There's no point in wasting one's precious time with this.
