ugh

you haven't watched the olympics long enough to realize the CBC Olympic song is iconic. I Believe represents nothing.

I love this decision. I personally have many complaints about the CTV olympic coverage, but my main complaint is about their website. It aspires to horrible.

CBC's website have alot of reports and features in the video section even though they don't have the rights to London 2012.

As long as they don't follow up one of the most exciting moments of the olympics by telling us what Ludacris tweeted, followed by YouTube clips of people falling over while attempting to run hurdles, they have my vote.

Instead it will a giant ad for Being Erica, Arctic Air and Republic of Doyle. Lovely.

Oh, and Andi Petrillo will probably read tweets.
