Well done Lomdon.. The Opening Ceremonies was amazing and a great start to the games. Have fun and enjoy the spectical of the Olympic Games.. Im envious for I remember the fun that came with the games here in Calgary.

Happy birthday Banfire.. Have a great day!

Ops! You are correct.. I didn't..

That is the record Joe.. 14 gold medals by one nation at a winter Olympics.

You are correct, the Montreal Olympics was a financial disaster for that city. There are some sucess stories as well. I live in a host city, Calgary, Alberta, Canada which held the 1988 winter Olympics. Our Olympics has been considered the most successful Olympics, artistically and financially. Many of the facilities built for the games are still used today. They act as training grounds for many athletes around the world. As a nation with a relatively small population, we went from winning only a handful of medals in Calgary to settting the modern record of most Golds by a country and second in medal count behind the US. The legacy of our games has lived on, something we Calgarians take pride in... I hope London feels the same way, years after the games of 2012 are over.

Happy birthday buddy

What suprises me even more is that actually won, what happened Beer! hahahaha

As far as Im concerned. the sanctions were in excess, but never the less justified. The NCAA should have stressed to Penn State that they should set up a fund for the any victims of molestation or else. This should have been Penn lead in good faith rather than being forced.

- The "football program" describes all individuals involved in any capacity with Penn State football. They did NOT know what was going on. A relative handful did, and they are under indictment. More indictments may come. The focus should be on those who break laws, not those who do not. - It is irrelevant where the money for the fine comes from up front. But where it comes from eventually are state residents whose tax dollars pay for colleges and universities. (I know liberals find it difficult to understand that government doesn't create wealth and only takes it from those who do - that doesn't justify robbing taxpayers of tens of millions that could be put to better use.) - As to the money being used to "help the victims," that's not all it's intended for under the NCAA's fine; irregardless, the NCAA is not a court of law and has no freakin business acting like one. The courts - juries - should determine compensation for Sandusky's victims, NOT the NCAA. How can the money be Irrellivent at first and then rellivent later? As for where the funds come from, as far as I know, they haven't said where, so maybe we jumping the gun. I do agree, the taxpayers of state should not accountable for this. As for the "football program".. I was only referring the individual's in charge. This situation seems very simular to what happen in New Orleans and the head hunting bounty on players. The league came down hard on the team & coaches.. As for funds for victims.. Those funds will be used to help victims of all molestation crimes. Help with education, councelling and whatever support is needed.. Not as a personal damages.

The punishment is justified. The Penn state football program knew of this and tried to keep it covered. If you nurture this type conduct, then what stops others from trying to cover up such terrible crimes. The 60 million dollar fine is equivalent to one years income from the football program, which will be used to help victims.. Is that such a terrible thing? In serval years, this will be Forgotten by most but the families and victims who will never forget.

Welcome and have fun.

This is an Horific event and my thoughts and prayers go out to the persons who lost loved ones... But Alex Jones is fucking nut case..... http://www.ebaumsworld.com/video/watch/82677133/
