That's beautiful.
 
Soooo, its up to us now. Both the World Cup AND the Olympics. Oh god.

As I mentioned in the BrazilGAF thread, I am terribly afraid we won't deliver on the organization side. I pray to God we actually do it, but yeah, as a brazilian, it can go perfectly well or terribly bad. I just don't know. x___x

You guys are welcome anyway. You all better come! I promise it will be fun. :D

We just have fantastic musicians.

You really do! Jesus Christ.
 
Dem models
Hopefully the Olympics never come to NYC, the city can't handle another million people along with the usual amount of tourists at the same time, it would be a nightmare to even be in Manhattan and Queens.
You know what, despite all that I still want us to try. To try and make it work. I'd love nothing more than for the Olympics to take place in my hometown a least once in my life.

Bring it on I say. I'm looking at this bitch half full.

Both London and Rio are incredibly populated cities, but NYC has over double the population density!

I really don't know if it would be possible.
 
Catching up.. a bit behind because we went to the movies. Lol @ the saxophonist for Madness seemingly having something hanging from his cock or something. So weird!
 
A fashion parade with Kate Moss and a bunch of other smug models posing and strutting for an Olympics closing ceremony? What on earth is this crap? This has got to be one of the most insultingly stupid and garish things I've ever seen in my life. Then they top it off with an appearance by the violently arrogant, unfeeling, female spawn of Satan herself, Naomi Campbell. Wonder if she was wearing any of her cherished blood diamonds tonight?
 
I think San Francisco will probably get the USOC bid. Philly and Dallas have more available space and venues, but all that massive silicon valley corporate money is going to be overwhelming.

NBC's problem isn't really in the time delay.
I at least understand wanting to show certain things in primetime instead of while everyone is at work.

What I don't understand is the choices of sports for primetime coverage (no variety) and showing long winded documentaries instead of sports.

That kinds stuff in addition to a lot of other things
It is emphasizing drama that appeals to women viewers and drives ratings higher than if they would just show a competition. The truth is they really need to give context because unless you follow a sport regularly, you have no idea who anyone on Team USA is before trials.

Most importantly though, until ratings start going down, America is in for lots more tape delay from NBC.

It'll be fine.

Even if the government fucks up one thing or another, the hospitality will make up for it all.

makes up for the lack of athletes, right? ;)

Brazil-Gaf we don't want to get killed though

Well, then you better not come! If you step on Brazilian soil, you get shot.

Only us bullet-resistant people can thrive in these harsh lands.

Already saving for the trip.

There was a Brazilian sports journalist just on BBC News a few minutes ago talking about Brazil's extreme bureaucracy getting in the way of preparations. But apparently the IOC set really stringent deadlines and everything should be fine (especially as lots of infrastructure has to be ready for the World Cup anyway).
