Michael Phelps finishes 4th and for the first time since 00 games he doesn't medal. Ryan Lochte destroyed the competition so let's see if Phelps can win in the other events.

USA vs. France tomorrow can't wait!

Phelps was juicing in Beijing, its clear as day now.
I think we have to start wondering if Zimmerman was actually a hero, and possibly investigatig whether the rash of burglaries in the area had to do with the arrival of Trayvon. If so, I think posthumous charges of Trayvon are in order. -Rimmy

Eh. After Beijing he said he was never going to swim that particular race again and even though he ended up swimming it, he didn't train for it much.

Not only this race, this guy didn't train nearly as hard as he did for the 08 games. His coach said he lost the love and passion but when he lost to Lochte in the World Games he got back into it. Going to be interesting, but if he wins two medals he will have the most medals in the history.

USA looked very impressive after a little slow start. Kevin Durant be stroking the crap out of the ball and then we did a good job of getting the ball out of Parker's hands.

Really good win, France is talented and they just go destroyed. I like coach K's rotation, he's got a good feel for it.

Yep, I'm still pissed we are not seeing DWill and CP3 playing together. I kind of understand as one needs to run the show at all times but need to try to implement it as it worked in 08. France has the second most NBA players behind USA but they are not that good of a team. Even though they have as many NBA players as they do, everything is dependent on Parker. But overall, very good performance. They have two cupcakes in a row then a pretty good Lithuania team and Argentina.

Is Hope Solo a head case? I think she was roid raging in her tirade against Brandi Chastain.

You've obviously never been to France. Anyone who has wouldn't have made such an ignorant statement.

That was ignorant as hell, especially since there's an estimated 5 million Blacks (Afro-French) in France. :roll:

It was just hyperbole. Just about every country has more than 10.
