Opening Ceremony was ridiculous! Anyone else catch it on nbc?
It's pretty neat that this is actual races and nations competing against each other. anyways, I feel like this is going to be one of the better Olympics in my life time.

Anyone watch the men's 4x100m freestyle relay? Fucking amazing.
After this:
| Quote: |
| “The Americans?” Bernard recently told the sports newspaper L’Equipe, “We’re going to smash them. That’s what we came for.” |
And with the favored French team winning by about half a body length with about 25m left to go, Bernard (one of the fastest 100m swimmers out there) swimming for the French and even the commentators saying the US was just going to win silver, the last US swimmer swims the best relay split ever (I think) and just beats out France.
It was awesome. |

I've said it before, I'll say it again:
Shut the fuck up France. The entire country would be speaking German if the USA didn't help them, and talking shit then losing only makes you look like a fool.
Go USA. |

There wouldn't be a USA if it weren't for France and we're just talking sports anyway, what are you going on about? It's not like France, as a country talked shit. The French papers will be making fun of Bernard tomorrow.
It's fine to make fun of the idiot that talked shit, but talking shit and proving your ignorance only makes you look like a fool.  |

BEIJING - Usain Bolt completed his sprint double Wednesday with a gold medal in the men's 200m.
Once again, the Jamaican blew away the field, but this time he ran through the finish and with a 19.30 broke Michael Johnson's world record.
