Well, despite all of the bad news, and let's be honest, there is a LOT of bad news, today, we've a happy, good news story! The parade of nations take place in Paris on the Seine for the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games!
Now, we are realistic, we understand that the Olympic movement isn't the bastion of fair play and good sportsmanship that Pierre de Coubertin envisioned back in 1896 at the first modern Olympiad, however, the spirit is still very much there, and for many competitors, no matter how good you are, no matter how many medals you may win, there are, for so many athletes, no professional leagues to compete in after the games end.

But I digress; let's enjoy the games as they unfold in front of our eyes, after all, this is the Summer of Summer!
