That's pretty sweet if that many people stuck around to watch Phelps. AFTER AN EXHIBITION.

Any chance he tries again in 2012 or is 27 too old in Swimming?

Someone explain how showing this race 13 hrs after it happened, at 11:30 pm EDT is better than showing it live at 10:30 AM EDT.

phelps is now 8/8 saying he's at a loss for words too. I like how his teammates have a few golds each and theyre 2nd fiddle.

When Phelps gets back to America he wont be able to beat off all the 10's with a bat. He can pretty much open a catalogue and point.

I realize that Kramer's job doesn't lend itself to creativity, but her menial questions are driving me nuts.

I bet if Michael Phelps was in the 100m final we would've seen it live. F*** NBC.

This delay is probably the biggest screw job of the olympics so far.

That's what's so strange about it, I can see if they wanted to hold it to show right at 8 to kick off their coverage, but 11:30 just makes no sense.

I still don't know why they couldn't have it live, AND have a replay in prime-time.
