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.

I find her to be sexy AF. And she has the best personality and is so much fun.

And I absolutely love to watch her play rugby.

I don't care if you think she is manly, or too fat, or ugly. Sometimes, certain people just do it for you, and she just does it for me.
You like beardless Mamoa too don't you

I guess the Seine is still too nasty for the triathletes to go swimming.

Women's gymnastics team finals is going on and the US women are unsurprisingly absolutely dominating the other countries. Simone Biles is the goat of women's gymnastics, but these other girls are pretty damn great.

Lmao, is it for real? Last I saw is that tests came back and said it was good to go and the mayor of Paris took a quick little dip "to prove that it was clean enough to swim in", but that's nothing like going on a long ass swim that you swallow quite a bit of the nasty shit.

These women are ****ing nails. Should see the Brazilian girl that busted her face doing the uneven bars in practice. Big black eye and cut.

Also I've seen a few pretty big **** ups by the other teams. These American girls are on a whole different level from all of these other teams.

They canceled an event as the participants were waking up to prepare to compete today.

Pretty shitty deal.
