    Of all the countries in all the world, the French are talking trash? On America? LOL!!!

    Serves 'em right. I loved the look of pure shock on their faces long after the race was over. And the fact that they had to be in the lane right next to the US and watch them celebrate up close and personal was an added bonus.

    Great race. I know it really upped my interest in the games.

    Makes up for Hall and his "Smash em like a guitar" quote he said in Australia only to see the Aussies playing air guitar on the medal stand.

    Did you guy see the guy standing next to Phelps? When he looks and sees that they win, he yells F***********************!!!!!! at the top of his lungs. No question about it. Hilarious. I know nothing about swimming, so when the announcers say that was the best swimming relay ever, I have to believe them. It really was exciting.

    I was shocked that the French swimmer didn't stop halfway through the last leg of the race and surrender.
