    You miss the US did the unthinkable, beating the south korea in men's team archery? That was on msnbc. Pure inspiration.

    I'm pretty sure he's trolling. I liked the first part with the progression of time period and the forging of the rings. The rest sucked. The british musicians were crap, the queen wasn't interested, and it was very bland in general.

    I can't believe they're not showing the swimming live. What an embarrassment.

    Those commentators suck. During the Phelps race, all they could talk about was how Phelps should take it easy and how he didn't even need to win his heat. After he barely squeaked in (if he'd lost his heat, he'd been out), they said "and that's why you don't take anything for granted". As if they hadn't been talking all through the Phelps and Lochte heats about taking it easy.

    Lochte just destroyed the competition. Phelps failed to get a medal

    We have a women's volleyball player named "Destinee Hooker"? What on earth were her parents thinking? Sounds like a stripper

    Yahoo is ruining everything for me; all the results are headline news before they get aired on TV.

    Phelps needs only one medal to become the greatest Olympian of all time.
