--Clay Bryan is HOT
-Swimming--I don't like USA M.PHELPS...i think he's very arrogant.
-Diving
-Women's Soccer and last but not least Table Tennis

I rarely watch, but if I do, I like the Men's diving. And Figure skating; there's nothing like watching a man in tights. :D

I like Phelps, he has every right to be arrogant because he can back it up. ^_^
He's kickin' ass and takin' names. :lol:

i could have sworn i posted in here, but i don't see my post. :huh: i'll repost. :lol:

i watched the 4 men relay swim team last night. they kicked france's as$ despite the french trash talk. eat that, france! ^_^ the us girls in gymnastics aren't doing too well, but shawn johnson is just doing her own thing. i completely missed the men's gymnastics team, although i hear they're not doing too well either.

that girl holding the usa sign was completely hott. :lol:

i'm basically watching swim, gymnastics & track. the chinese beat our as$ in diving, too. we didn't even medal for synchronized diving. :eek:

I loved the 4x100 men's relay last night. That's gotta be a top Olympic moment somewhere. I started screaming the last 10 or so seconds of it and woke up my parents. My dad was like who the hell died? I was cracking up at that trash-talking French guy, Alain, he looked totally devastated. You would think people would learn by now not to talk smack cause it always bites you in the ass, like it did the US when Aussies beat them and when Ian Thorpe got cocky and started the smack talking and Phelps beat his ass.

And anyone watched the drama between the one French and Italian female swimmer. It was like something out of a lakorn w/the boyfriend stealing and publishing of scandalous pics.

i didn't really pay much attention to the russian girls. are they hott? the chinese girls were. :lol: although i think they're too old for me. :huh:

the 4 men relay race was awesome. even the announcers didn't think they'd win. although they won, one of our girls (Katy Hoff) lost though just by that much as well. she looked so disappointed. one U.S. swim team wins by a tad bit, and one U.S. swimmer also loses by a tad bit. the races are so tight this year. :eek:

oh yeah. i watched the little drama between the french & italian swimmer as well. must be a big disappointment, since the italian swimmer was the gold medalist 4 years ago, and she placed last. damn. :eek: that's why you screw over relationships & pursue your dreams instead. learn from this lil' lil' ones. :lol:
