Anyone watching the Olympics?

Anyone watching it and if you are, what are you interested in and what are your opinions, predictions? Right now I'm focusing on Michael Phelps. Hopefully he can win all 8 gold medals. The 2nd gold medal he won was intense! I thought the French had it in the bag, but the last guy for U.S.A came through with a huge comeback to overtake the French and win the gold. Let's see if he can make history! Also the U.S.A. basketball team better win the gold considering they're suppose to be the best basketball players in the world! That's all I have to say for now...U.S.A! U.S.A!

Phelps is a beast and yeah i learned women swimmers look like dudes

haha lmao. Also speaking about women swimmers, Hoff was so close to getting that gold medal for U.S.A, but just got beat out in a fraction of a second. That really sucks. Anyway back to Phelps, 2/8! 6 more gold medals and history is made.

Phelps does it again. He won his third gold medal and is 5 gold medals away from making history. The guy has won 9 gold medals in total (He won 6 in the last Olympics at the age of 19) and by doing that, he has tied the record for the most gold medals won by any athlete in the olympics. It's hard to believe that this guy is only 23 and has accomplished so much. He has a bright future in front of him and who knows what other records he will break. Hopefully he can win 5 more gold medals and beat Mark Spitz's record of 7.

Anyway as for who are some baseball players in the Olympics, here is the United States national baseball team roster: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_national_baseball_team

If you scroll down you'll see which players are on the roster. Almost all of them are from the minor leagues (A, AA, and AAA).

Well Phelps broke the record for most gold medals for any athlete with 10. He's halfway there! Only 4 more gold medals until a perfect 8.

This is just sick! 5 gold medals! Each one Phelps has set a new world record. Wow! I thought that I would never really watch the Olympics, but this guy singlehandly is keeping me locked in.

I've actually found Weight Lifting quite interesting. Some of the things they did.

PHELPS! 8 gold medals! HISTORY IS MADE!

I must say, I'm quite impressed

yup pretty much. I'll add that that jamaican track runner in the 100 meter is a beast as well. And that I missed the end but that USA vs. Poland indoor volleyball women's match was pretty exciting; down to the wire.

lol, now all he wants to do is eat junk food

I watched the U.S. vs. China baseball game. It was sickening, the worst sportsmanship I've ever seen in a game of any sport. Both teams should be completely ashamed by how they acted, especially the U.S. for starting it all.

lol phelps owns and thats pretty much the sum up of the whole thing

Anyone see the part where a religious nutcase prevented an old man from making gold in previous games?

Didn't see that. I mainly watched Phelps, and Usain Bolt. Damn that guy is fast. Also U.S.A basketball team takes gold. Watched some gymnastics, but that's pretty much it.
