Simply an amazing race.

Phelps Swallows Spitz

I was disappointed to hear Spitz wasn't invited to the Olympics to watch Phelps race. Spitz, after all, held the record for the most Olympic Gold Medals in a single Olympics and should have been invited as a courtesy - especially by the U.S. Swim Team in light of his up-til-now unmatched accomplishment.

An incredible race. Phelps' decision to do the half-stroke, while Cavic "coasted" the last 2 meters, made the difference.

Go Phelps! You Rock!

the olympics suck. Who gives a shit.....

Take a walk and get some air, asshole.

come on cal,

We all know you love to watch mens gymnastics. It's ok......

Are your parents aware of your viewing habits there princess?

if spitz wanted to see the olympics he might just buy a ticket. he got what he earned he isnt due anything

I give a shit. If you don't blink during the incessant pageant of commercials from Beijing, you're rewarded with an occasional content break.

That content seems mostly to be beach volleyball and synchronized diving, the two major non-sports until they add chess, yoga and competitive tango.

One lady penning her views to the daily blat complained that the beach bunnies show more skin than their male counterparts. Sadly our BBs don't have enough to make a fuss about.

Yeah, Phelps is worth waiting out the beach and the double divers for. I wonder what he listens to when not in the water. I wonder if the smog will return by marathon time. I do give a shit. herm

I didn't know Fred Phelps could swim, too?

Chad Johnson isn't impressed.

Apparently irritated by the fact that theres an athlete not named Chad Johnson whos getting so much attention, the athlete currently named Chad Johnson said Wednesday that he could beat Olympic swimming stud Michael Phelps.

The declaration came Wednesday on ESPNs Pardon the Interruption, in a segment during which Johnson addressed various topics.

The problem with Michael Phelps is theres no competition where he is,-- Johnson said. Now if he came to where Im from, which is the inner city, Liberty City [in Miami], I was the three-time Charles Hadley Pool champ. . . . I know a couple people who could beat Michael Phelps right now. Seriously, Im telling you. And Im one of them.--

Its unknown whether Johnson would want a head start, like he did when he raced a horse a couple of years ago.

Good thing McLame didn't write this blog-he'd've called it by a "cunt hair"....

frank, I am sure you would have said "cock hair"

Good thing McLame

No lie here: I saw this thread and said to myself, "I'll bet ffreankf55 has posted something political".

Thanks for not letting us down, mr. one track mind. There are still some other non-political threads here you can add your partisian BS to if you haven't already -- but again, I'm guessing you already have.

Ever try experiencing life without politics injected into everything, frank? It's kind of cool -- in fact, given the state of politics these days it's actually quite refreshing. Check it out sometime.

frank has no life. This is it. Poor Bastard

Put Phelps in the same pool and the same swimsuit, using the same level of technical sophistication that was availble in the days of Mark Spitz, and watch Spitz spit Phelps out his ass.

Oh, and then check them both for designer stealth drugs.

#7! America should be proud.

First post from Herm I've agreed with. Even laughed out loud at "competitive tango".

I'll give the Chinese credit for one thing, though. Having lived near Munich for years, I thought it would be impossible to build an Olympic venue more awful and hideous-looking than Olympiastadion. But the Chinese have managed to build the world's ugliest stadium.
