I was depressed when I realized I had to come to work today and couldn't sit in front of the "boob tube" all day watching them. :(

i was disappointed when i heard it would be about an hour until that race, (that was when phelps qualified for something else and he had an hour & 4 minutes rest) i did not want to fight staying awake to watch it

We've been hooked on the Olympics too. But I couldn't stay up that late to watch it.

MJ,

The US pulled it out at the very end against the French. Australia won the Bronze.

It was such a close race.

I think the first 5 teams were faster than the world record. (The US beat it by 4 sec.)

That was one of the most exciting events I have ever seen.

plus, besides getting the gold, the best thing about it is the last guy for the french was the one talking smack

Yeah, I didn't really care about who was going to win before the event. Then I heard the comment from the French team and I just HAD to root for the US.
