Don't wait for NBC, watch it now LIVE. Copy & paste this link into your browser:

It's German TV, but it really doesn't matter because you mostly watch, not listen.
You will need to have Windows Media Player installed.
ENJOY!
-
Saw it on BBC, live. It was amazing
-
was great, that movie director created it didn't he
-
Yeah, he did.
China does it BIG ;D
-
I suppose being able to force tens of thousands of people to perform may help that, lol.
Watch London fail. Hopefully it'll be better than our logo
-

I think that's to send a message to every country: "You don't want to f--- with this army".

About 150,000

@Nopyo: Rofl, thats a good one.
Now why the intercourse are you all thinking bball is an olympic sport? Yes it is played there but if you were to ask me I would throw it out the window, along side many other things. Athletics, Swimming, etc personally I think are Olympic sports.
-
so ur saying to play basketball you dont have to be athletic?
-
You have to be athletic to be a pornstar, but we dont see sex competitions.
-
Man, Starcraft is more of a sport than basketball. Seriously.

My brother is just a lazy punk skater kid, but hes got more streetball moves then anyone you'll meet. Bottom line, he's a straight up baller.
-
Bottom line, he's a straight up baller.
If he's not black, that's 50% gone right there.
j/k ;D
-
Dude you have no idea.
-
I know, I was kidding. I really want to see though, get a video of him on YouTube or something.
-
So is every sport besides swimming gonna be held in the "Bird's Nest"?
-
No, there are special places designated for gymnastics, kayak/canoe, shooting, basketball, etc.
The Bird's Nest is for soccer I think.
Tell you the truth, the Bird's Nest is actually specially designed to cooperate with Zhang Yi-Mou's (the director) ideas for the opening/closing ceremonies.
-
ohh ok.
I completely missed the opening ceremonies, and tried to find a vid but had no luck?
Do you got one?
-
There are torrents of it.
-
Well NBC botched the opening ceremonies.
All of the countries came out in alphabetical order, but NBC edited the vids and changed the order/
-
I have a DVD recording of the NBC one, but I'll have to find a file host that can offer me 2-3GB of storage.
Also, Basketball: USA vs China, right now, NBC, go watch.
-
Last I checked USA was up at the half.
-
Final Score:
USA: 101
CHN: 70
Yao Ming gave China a good start my shooting a 3-pointer, but it went downhill from the 2nd quarter on. GG.
-

...No? According to just about every source I can find, they did not at all come out in alphabetical order. NBC pretty explicitly explained why it wasn't in alphabetical order. Are you kidding? >_>
EDIT: Oh, the slashdot article. I saw the TV broadcast, and the wikipedia article seems to be about what happened there.
-
They came out in the slant of the first character in the Chinese translation of the Country name order (after Greece).
