I knew that would get your attention :tongue:

The FRENCHIES, that's who. After talking trash about spanking the US relay team, they placed a very close second to the Americans last night in a fantastic finish in the 4x100m freestyle. Unfortunately, I had to stay up until 11:45 to watch it, and now I am draggin *kitten*. I think I'll go get a coffee now... an AMERICANO!!!!:happy:

    Bravo USA!

    I'm following as much of the swimming, and gymnastics competitions as I can...plus track and field, though I haven't seen any track competition as of yet.

    My husband and I were up late watching that relay too. MAN was that great!! You guys must be SO proud of your team :flowerforyou: Our athletes are SO under-funded, really sad... but fortunately we have good neighbours we can root for in times like this :drinker: I LOVED Phelps' reaction when he realized the won!!

    I'm right there with ya.. I was screaming at the TV... no one (even the American TV commentators) gave us a chance... it was AWESOME...

    and, I have to say, it couldn't have been any sweeter than to beat those darn French who were running their mouths... they should know better than to mess with us...

    All I could think last night was that the French newspapers should run a front page add with the picture of the celebrating American team and the headline.... MERDE! :laugh:

    anyway... especially near and dear to my :heart: since I am a former competitive swimmer myself - although my times were never anything like theirs... I was happy to break a minute when I swam 100s!, the splits last night were in the mid 40s! :laugh:

    I hadn't stayed up for it but I just watched the feed online. MAN!!! Gave me major chills! That is fantastic!!!

    This is why I love the olympics!! Just the sportsmanship and sheer talent shown by people!! (And karma gets those that aren't very sportsmanlike!!!).

    I am just in awe of these people!!

    An awesome win! That's what happens when you go in over confident and run your mouth!

    WELL DONE, USA! Phelps is in the zone!!!!!!!!!

    I'm actually a little surprised to be honest.

    I mean, I really would have thought that the French would be really really good at running away...

    I stayed up late just to watch this relay and I'm so glad I did. Hubby and I were whooping and hallering (sp) I thought we were going to wake up the kids! It was the most amazing relay that I have ever watched. :love: :love: I guess the Frenchies will think twice about trash talking the good ole USA again! :tongue:
