I don't really care for Olympic swimming, but Michael Phelps gives me a reason to give a rats ass. It's an amazing thing, and he will get a gold medal for this 4x100. He lead off pretty strong. I seriously thought that we were going to settle for silver, but the French guy slowed down. It was pretty exciting. For all the **** talking by the French, we did the walking, and now we get to hear the Star Spangled Banner.
Totally badass finish by the US relay team to take the gold. It was worth it just to see how intense Phelps reacted when they pulled it out. You can clearly tell he has a drive unlike many others....That 8 gold medals seems a little bit more realistic right about now.
I loved the look on the face of France when they saw that WE won!! I hope there will be a pic of that.
does phelps remind anyone else of mclovin when he's yelling? and now i get to hear the national anthem for the first time this olympics. and by beating the french. i'll always take that.
How did France get so close I thought USA were the clear cut favorites considering they had Phelps???
The Americans didn't even decide on their fourth player until after the prelims. That's when Jones was chosen as the last member.
