If it is anything like their World Cup bid then I can see where the criticism comes from. They weren't even ready by the time 2014 kicked off.

Deej what is your issue with Rio?

I have a laundry list of issues with Rio.
  1. like Ki, mentioned earlier. Their water quality is awful.
  2. Their head security person quit her job like a month before the events were getting ready to kick off. If that isn't a telling sign I don't know what is.
  3. Athletes are getting robbed left and right. I wouldn't even want to be a tourist going to the games. I saw a couple of specials that focused on the cell phone stick up kids that just snatch people's phones and deliver them to a shop to be jailbroken and turned around for a quick profit.
  4. They had similar issues building/setting up for the games that Russia did during the winter Olympics to the point that they were doing some radically unethical shit just to get it done in time.
  5. Zika virus running rampant.
  6. Olympic Village is in poor condition and most of it is inhabitable.
  7. On top of the water pollution there is also shitty air quality as well.

Good post, knew about the Zika virus, McIlroy pulled out because of that. The rest sounds like a mess. I remember when the World Cup was on they had to spray the pitch green before England played as it wasn't ready and was sandy in places. The stadiums weren't finished either

Shambles.

Opening ceremony starts in a bit. I think I'll watch.

Opening Ceremony is good so far.

Hardcore Parkour!

Edit: it's kind of funny how in the states we are behind an entire hour because NBC wants to toss in commercials.
