Yeah they're breezing it. BUT YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO!!! Basketball is your sport. If you come second, or lose even ONE game on the way to coming first its a failure. There's no highlight in just reaching your expectation. BTW Team GB third in the medal table. Considering the size of Britain compared to China or Australia or USA, we are f*cking caning it.

Phelps no doubt goes down in history, mad props to him. But... <i>This</i> is scary. Dude is the fastest man on the planet, and he didn't even try. Crazy. I’m with complexone on this.

Yeah dude can swim, no doubting that, but people calling him the greatest olympian and athlete ever is ridiculous. Calling him the best swimmer I'm cool with. You think if Team USA BBall had the chance to win 8 medals they would lose a single one? Swimmers get so many chances to win a medal it's nearly unfair to compare their medal count with someone in another sport. Besides the medley's he only swam two different disciplines, and even in the medleys he did the other two for only 50 meters, ehh. Call me negative but dude is like the bronze medal of the games for me. Mr. Bolt and Team USA is where it's at. The announcer guy said he threw away a 9.59 and top speed of around 30 mph. It was funny watchin his interview right after cus he's like, "I don't care about the WR I just want the gold." Well he got it. The more I think about Phelps the more I’m not impressed.
