If Phelps can win all 8 gold medals and the the USA basketball team can also win gold, I'll call this the a win for the US regardless of what else happens.

Damn, that was a graphic article. And I like how the video replayed it 1000x.

Also, Phelps is a fucking stud, man. That guy's gotta be half fish. And half praying mantis.

Here's why. He eats 10,000 calories a day.

I must say watching Phelps in that 4 x 100 relay race 3 nights ago was the coolest thing I've ever seen in the Olympics...

French talking shit (I hate the french) and leading the first 3 legs basically...last American swimmer was their slowest and he made a comeback of one body length in the last 25 meters...that's sick nasty...

That moment is up there with MIchael Johnson breaking the 200 world record in 96 in my favorite olympic moments...

Phelps is probably doping

Yeah that was more or less the best photo I've ever seen.

Until they said "It wasn't meant to be offensive". Really? I don't care what culture you're from, how would you not expect to piss off Asians with that? Plus, Jason Kidd was right. If the USA team had done that, we'd be kicked out.

Again though, I do think the picture is the funniest thing I've seen in awhile.
Da Bears
Yea I'm just happy to see other countries have the same sense of humor, that was classic....

Fuck anyone who is offended...and yea if USA did that we'd be under a lot of shit.

Didn't the chinese use like 13 year olds in gymnastics and that's illegal LoL? Crazy how the chinese always lie about age...like Yi Jian Lin in the NBA.....they are so fucking weird with that.

Also anyone watch Phelps before his races...the way he swins his shoulders and arms....it's like the man is made out of jello...so strangely cool...
Zebrahead

Phelps got #7 by .01 of a second. Unbelievable.
merriweatherpostpavillion
There's just some people who are lucky to the point that it's insane. I'm not saying this guy isn't an amazing athlete, but come on...this and that win against those mouthy french fags is unreal.
Himura Kenshin
Which makes it all the better.

All there is to do now is win the gold in basketball. If that happens, the rest of the world can suck my red,white and blue cock.

That's the last thing we need: Stories of Brett Favre in the Olympics.
Himura Kenshin
BREAKING NEWS: Brett Favre returns from retirement to play for New Zealand!
Feern
So, I called in sick today and caught up on this shit. USA mens basketball is pretty set for gold, as is the womens (no team is even close). We have a pretty good chance at womens soccer too.

Okay Bolt is a freak. If he put any effort at all into the last 10 meters of his races he would be smashing records instead of breaking them.

I think he's doing it on purpose so he can break them again later.
Da Bears
SOmeone please teach Bolt to catch a football...6'5 with that speed....he'll want to play for Carson Palmer since he's the best QB in the NFL naturally...and the Bengals will have a ring...

Am I delusional?

Yes.

So us vs spain for the gold. We so got this shit.

Are the womens basketball up to the gold round yet? And who are we facing?
Tiz
i look forward to seeing the us play spain again, i can't imagine the us playing anywhere close to how they did before [they shot nearly 50% from the three] or spain playing anything like the second half the last time they played when it looked like they just gave up. i think it could be a lot closer, definitely closer than 37 points, but who knows. it's actually airing at a time i'll be awake during too, can't wait.

also the women play for gold tomorrow against australia i think.

A bit, the whole sprinter to reciever bit has been tried out numerous times and I don't think there has ever been a time it has really ever panned out.

Most football players would crush Bolt. One tackle and he'd be out for the year.

Wow you really are stupid.

Bolt's 6'5", 190 lbs. which is the same size if not bigger than many of the best "fast" NFL receivers. Not to mention he's in better shape. He'd be just fine.

Somebody should get him and his mates a bobs...
