Italy’s national outfits are awful. I feel betrayed. Lol.
I missed most of the parade of nations. I can’t believe they actually did it. I’ll probably watch it tomorrow because I’m a nerd like that.

I am laughing because as soon as Italy started marching my 7yo started screaming about how awesome their shirts were. Screaming.

oh my the pressure to nail them all in one take 🤣🤣🤣 It was so fun and goofy! They did mess up, at least once with badminton that I saw. I wish they would have left the choir to sing imagine, or chosen other performers. None of them impressed me. My H is in IT and went nuts over the drones. I kept thinking of the Death Star 😂

I spent last night watching the men’s road race. Definitely didn’t watch all 6 hours or however long it is but I really enjoyed seeing the different scenery and areas they rode through.

We watched rowing this morning 🚣♀️
Oh, and women’s 3 on 3 basketball. We’re here for the sports we’ll won’t see again for 4 years I guess.

I’m watching women’s volleyball ball now. Thinking back to the earlier post about uniform requirements. They shouldn’t have to play in bikinis if they don’t want to.

I watched some of that too. What an amazing way that must have been to see Tokyo! And I watched the finish (recorded) this morning. It was an exciting battle for you the second and third places— photo finish between about 6 cyclists! And the Ecuadorian cyclist won by more than a minute and made it look so effortless abs joyful.

Whats the best way to watch on my TV that isn't cable? A lot will be on the local NBC channel. Do you get that? All the prime time coverage. Beyond that I’m a cheater and use the NBC sports app with someone else’s cable login. I already had it set up because that’s how I watch baseball.

Whats the best way to watch on my TV that isn't cable? I signed up for a free 7 day trial of fuboTV which streams live tv. I figure after this week I’ll do a free trial of Hulu +live to get me through the Olympics!

We’re here for the sports we’ll won’t see again for 4 years I guess. This prompted me to see if the future schedule was altered due to holding these summer games a year late…but it looks like Paris in 2024 for summer so only 3 years. And winter Olympics start in Feb 2022…wondering what will be happening with covid then?

I tried watching some dressage but could not get into it. Just this over and over again. Apologies to the horse people.

Every time I try to watch Archery, the men’s 3x3 basketball cuts in. I feel like my Olympics viewing is being stalked by this game. Last night. Just now. Make it stop.

I’m watching the finish now since I had to go to bed last night. My kids are shockingly into it.

DS got so excited when I told him there were horse events in the Olympics, so I found the dressage that was streaming this morning and showed it to him. He lasted 2 minutes before telling me he was done because “it’s just horses hopping around.”
