Lol I know that. That's why I said the team won the gold. I was just pointing out that it was the second gold for Phelps this Olympics

I'm sorry I was half asleep when I read that... I though it said "thanks 2 Phelps" or something of the sort...

It was a close race though with the 4 x 100 race with phelps and his team taking gold...France almost had it but the last USA swimmer went ninja-mode and he deserves the credit in my opinion.

Olympic road racing is boring, i prefer the major tours like the Tour de France and the Vuelta.

That was because the Korean contender tried to pass others in like a weird fashion where she just leaned on everyone else as she went down. I think she brought down like 4-5 racers with her, whenever this kinda thing happens it always sucks for the other guys. Imagining your a top racer and cause of someone else' mistake your Olympic dream ends there....lol...
