Phelps is officially my 5th favorite american right now. 1st is Bela, 2nd is Alicia Sacramone, 3rd is Vicky Galindo, 4th is Dara Torres.

Just has fallen off for me since that relay race.

Sick. Touching the wall is a crapshoot.

I think the reaction time starts are more of a crapshoot factor in this race.

I just watched two and a half hours of women running. I'm not watching 30 laps of men swimming.

(ok, I didn't really watch much of the marathon, but it still was too much)

Well I'm 0-2 with my eyes. I thought Phelps got out touched last night and I thought Torres pulled it out today. Thank god for the wall sensors.

Anyone writing him off ?

The Phelps finish still takes the cake in unpredictability imo.
I thought Torres lost in a French relay "he/she probably lost but I'm not positive" sort of way.
I guess the time differences don't support my eyes though, since Torres was closer than Bernard.

I feel bad for the guy in lane 1, so far back.

To make this marathon more interesting they should let loose a shark into the pool.

Any race with 2 commercial breaks in it just makes me wonder.

Lol....only if there is a disqualification. I'm sure the US is like 1 to 100.

I haven't been watching, but just looked and it's amazing that so many swimmers are still so close together.

Isnt Bolt in the 4x100 relay too? If he breaks two WRs and wins three golds it would be sickkkkkk

OMG and canada just took down a bronze. They have four medals now? On fire.
