Gotta love the OLYMPICS

What other program could make me sob, jump around like a wild woman and yell at my t.v.? Then want to do it again the next day.

I got so irritated listening to the commentators talking about the swimming relay last night. He says,"I've put a pen and paper to it and I just don't see how the Americans can beat the French." WELL MR. COMMENTATOR MAN you never know what is going to happen when you are dealing with humans. We don't always stick to the stats. It was an amazing race. Well worth the bags under my eyes this morning! *grin*

Can you believe that Michael Phelps in 6' 7" tall & has absolute flippers for feet?

I seriously can not get enough of the under water coverage...their form in perfect...I also love watching the dolphin kicks they do...oh yeah, & the flip turns...love it all.

I am not a sports fan and have never watched the Olympics but my sister and my children don't miss a thing. You make me want to get involved but I think I know if I started I would become addicted.

I didn't go to bed till almost 3:00am. My husband came into the living room and said, "What are you doing?" I'm watching the Olympics......lol

It's just like baseball, you never know what is going to happen, so don't count out anyone.....How about those male gymnists.

That was the best race on land or in water that I have seen in maaaannnnny years. I LOVED it (but the couch that I was jumping on did not:))

I love the Lympics. It's kind of hard to find the Canadians, but we've got the best warm-up suits. And, apparently, everybody in the Lympic Village loves us.
