***Official 2024 Paris Olympics Thread***

Watching the Olympics? Post about it here.
A quick intro....

2024 Paris Olympics Opening Ceremony: Start time, TV channel, date, live stream, key athletes and events

The 2024 Olympic Games begin July 26 and will be televised on NBC through Aug. 11

It's the time once again. It's time for the best athletes in the world to come together and crown champions in their various sports. The 2024 Olympic Games are set to begin this week in Paris as the world descends upon France. While there will be some qualifying events taking place earlier in the week, things officially kick off on Friday with the Opening Ceremony.

The Opening Ceremony is scheduled for Friday and feature several firsts, including being the first ceremony to be held outside of a stadium, as well as a parade of athletes held on the Seine River with boats for each national delegation. The boats will travel along a 3.7-mile stretch, passing by many iconic Parisian landmarks along the way. The ceremony will conclude with remarks from French President Emmanuel Macron.

Expect another gold-filled summer for the Americans as Team USA will be represented in just about every event over the course of the Games. Some of the biggest stars are back, including gymnast Simone Biles, decorated swimmers Katie Ledecky and Caleb Dressel, as well as track athletes Noah Lyles and Sha'carri Richardson. Plus, the men's and women's basketball teams look to extend their dominant runs at the games with more gold.

There will be two flag bearers for the United States when the team takes the boat down the Seine River -- LeBron James and tennis star Coco Gauff. The 2023 US Open champion was stunned by the news when it was revealed to her on Wednesday.

"I never thought in a million years I would have the honour of carrying the American flag for Team USA in the opening ceremony," Gauff said in a statement.

"I could not be more proud to lead my teammates with LeBron as we showcase our dedication and passion on the biggest stage there is."

Here's how to watch the 2024 Paris Olympics Opening Ceremony and highlights from the first week of competition.

Interesting. Knowing he's a court jester makes him dressing up in all the outfits and dancing around a little awkward. Apparently, we know the figure he agreed to, but I wonder what the first offer was and at what point they agreed to call him a corespondent instead of a mascot.

The DC kids have to be outraged about something. Always. Snoop was funny as hell and made the broadcasts more enjoyable. And if it draws in more viewers from non traditional Olympic demographics - which is what NBC wants - all the better.

But some crybabies just have to be butthurt all the time.

Same. It was truly horrible. I'd rather watch chess.

I enjoyed Snoops appearances during the events and his highlight wrap ups.
The other guy, Colin Jost, was hilarious as well reporting on the surfing competition in Tahiti.

She wants people to take public transpo to the events. Not drive.

Also, want employers to be allowed to work from home so there will be less cars on the roads. (I would think part of that would happen anyway)

Probably has some investment in it, and it's an easy way for the city to make money
