I think I'm in love.

Michael Phelps, you are part god, part dolphin.

He's gotta be. I swear.

Oh man I know!
There was an article today about how his body is just MADE for swimming. Long torso (like a boat), short legs (32" inseam), and size 14 feet (aka flippers). The writers words, not mine.

5 FOR 5 in a commanding fashion!!!

Woo Hoo, Marylander representing big time. Most decorated Olympian ever. Way to go Michael.

The Chinese girl fell off too

Looks like the U.S. Women will get the Silver.

BEST CASE SCENERIO: USA wins silver, and China has to forefit their medals because the IOC proves that the kids are under 15 (or if they only turned 15 this year) and all of the medals will transfer down

Bella Karoli just said that half the Chinese team is underage. He tells it like it is.

Woot for Bella!

Woot for Bella!

I love his accent

I love how he just throws his goggles/cap onto the side of the pool like it was nothing.

He said later on that his goggles filled up with water right when he dove in and just kept filling up. As you can see when he takes them off, water comes out of them. He said he could also have a littler time.

But what if he doesnt get all golds...he will be so mad

 

[imabrat]

I can't stand Bela Karolyi. But his statememt was true, the Chinese Government must've thought we were all dumb and we wouldn't notice it.


And I am officially in love! Michael Phelps swims again right?!?! HE BETTER!!

 

[imabrat]

And let me just say, right now I'm a little embarrassed to be known as a Spanish American. And I'm talking about the Spanish side, the American is "WOO HOO GO TEAM USA!"

i saw that he tossed them and i was wondering why but i didn't know they were filled with water but i heard that he wanted to do better with time though. so its understandable

 

[imabrat]

Yeah I can see why.

Me, personally, I think like "Dude you're at the Olympics! You're the freaking fastest swimmer on Earth, you've won most of your races by seconds! Be happy now, whine later!"

He swims either 2 or 3 more times. I think 2 because he's going for 7 golds and he has 5.
