Frenc Olympic swimmer Bernard prediction is wrong :)

one of the best races i have seen.

 

i know next to nothing about swimming, but i know that was a HELLUVA race! even the one before it, where Katie? Hoff looked like she won it but lost on the last stroke of the race to pick up a silver medal was a great race

 

The crazy thing was, so did the 4 & 5 finishers! Those are the moments that make watching the Olympics great. But I believe a giant "Suck It!" is in order. Oui?

 

I thought that all four American swimmers handled themselves quite well. It would have been easy to stoop down to the level of the French swimmers, but they maintained a level of class in their celebration. That said, I'm certain that every one of those guys was thinking exactly what you said.

 

Agreed. I think it was all said and done over a few glances back and forth. Phelps even made a point to step down and congratulate the French team on the podium.

Along that line of thought, my wife and I got talking about different sports and athletes, and swimmers tend to be some of the classiest and coolest around. You rarely see a swimmer who's a diva, talking smack (I don't even really consider the French comments trash) or marred in trashy tattoos.

 

Almost yelled out last night when I saw them win but I would have woken everyone in my house up, so I stopped myself. Amazing Race!

 

I was certainly cheering outloud when Lezak was gaining ground at the end of the race. One of the best races I've ever seen in any sport.

 

What a great race that was, and Phelps did it again an hour ago, amazing swimmers.

 

Oui!
