    I want to see an Olympics closing ceremony where they use the power of their dark gods to pull the still beating heart out of a sacrifice victim.

    So Russia, probably.

    So the West Coast NBC feed ended the Closing Ceremonies after Michael Buble's song.

    They're now premiering an episode of The Marriage Ref, and then in an hour will continue the Closing Ceremony festivities...featuring Nickelback and Avril. :P

    Just kinda what are you doing this is ridiculous and you can't help but get swept up in the insanity of the whole thing. Out of nowhere there is a giant hockey puck that is a cute as a button little kid and he is running around between giant cutouts of hockey players and then sexy mounties dance for a while until they are outshined by sexy maple leaves and for reason bill shatner is here and marty mcfly says hello

    it was just a whole bunch of fun

    well I get that the closing ceremonies are meant to be a huge party whereas the openings are meant to be all hey look how classy and cultural we are

    but seriously

    between the huge hockey players and the massive mounties and the giant flying moose and the giant beavers and Nickelback and Avril and Alanis Morrissette

    it's like

    I feel like someone just drowned me in a bucket full of maple syrup and that's not a good feeling

    I have a feeling the Canada Olympic Committee didn't know any Canadian bands other than Nickleback and Avril so as opposed to researching extras they just started making some up on the spot.

    By far the best thing NBC did during their coverage of the Olympics is taking a break after the Buble part and doing the rest at 11:30.

    So, at least to us, Canada's dignity is still intact!
