I suspect part of it being he gives so much back- his summer sports camp is in Vancouver.

Probably more to do with him now being a part owner in Fitness World.

For famous Cdn athletes (also famous in the US) I wondered if they would include Larry Walker.

I'm just happy there was no Celine or Nickelback.

I had no problem with the athletes they chose to light the Caldron.

  • The whales, poem, floor animation and general theme of the ceremony was cool.
  • Brian Adams is a terrible lip-syncher.
  • The National Anthem should NEVER be messed with. Hot girl with great voice shouldn't be blamed for poor programming choices.
  • Conan O'Brien is a very talented singer and somewhat stole the show but may have confused many foreign viewers.
  • Caldron malfunction was unfortunate as the idea to have them all light at the same time was a good one.

The good was very good and the bad was very bad with not much in the middle.

oh c'mon!

nickelback is teh only thing that could have made the opening ceremonies even better than they were.

actually there is one other thing.

i offered to shoot a flaming ham sandwhich outta my ass and across the stadium to light the torch, but sadly they turned me down.
