The swimming events in Beijing have been awesome.
 
I am so proud of Dara Torres I might dance a jig!
She is 41 years old, she recently gave birth and she came back
and won her 10th Olympic gold medal.

Dara Torres is so awesome, she has even motivated me!


Michael is of course beyond awesome.
Michael, Michael and Michael you are certainly the man!

He is certainly on top of the world these days.
Photo Gallery: Michael Phelps wins 7th gold medal

Isn't it wonderful to see these 2 breaking Olympic records?
How many 41 year old men or women can compete in the Olympics in any sport?
Dara you are woman, you are awesome and damn it you are roaring!

Is anybody else watching the Olympic coverage and enjoying watching
all the wonderful and marvelous athletes from all over the world?

Isn't it great to see SOMETHING on the telly that just makes you smile?

I'm even enjoying the men's basketball because of the reception the Americans have received and their more 'humble' attitude - if it's possible for an NBA player to be humble.  Mike Krzyzewski has done a good job with PR this go-round.

I wonder how many women (myself included) think other things when they hear he's doing the breaststroke.

I enjoy watching the mens' basketball, but today's game against Spain was sweet to watch.  USA played well, as usual, and I was sheer pleasure to watch Spain's players...  *fans self*  Spain does have some "fappable" men..... hmmmm

I am so glad other people are enjoying the games as much as I am.
I did not watch the opening night, and I really only started watching
it last week.
I agree the coverage is fantastic!
Can you imagine a 41 year old woman, that recently had a baby,
competing and winning a medal?

It is great to watch something on t.v. that shows people participating
in games/sports from all over the world.
It is wonderful to watch and really smile, and feel good about America,
other countries and the world.
Many of us need this "break" from all the other things going on in the
world that give us nothing to smile about!
Enjoy!!!

Thank you so much Vendaval!
It is great to have something this wonderful happening internationally!
I knew I had it bad when I was glued to my seat watching the
men's volleyball!
But then I was also looking at those bodies.
 Plenty of eye candy to go around at the Olympics.

We have had stellar athletes this year!
