What saddened me the most was Mohammad Ali at the Olympic flag. Parkinson's is a horrible disease.
I found it a bit strange that they had him standing there and made a big fuss about the flag going by him. Don't get me wrong, I have a lot of respect and admiration for Muhammed Ali, but the rest of the program seemed to be all about England. He seemed out of place and unrelated to everything else.
