This one’s for the French 4×100 relay swim team, who couldn’t back up their trash talk, and finished .08 seconds behind the U.S. team. Awww…

“Of all the losers, you finished first in that group… You’re the #1 loser.”

Definitely the highlight of the Olympics so far for me.

Events watched so far (as best as I remember):

• Gymnastics (men & women)
• Indoor volleyball (women)
• Beach volleyball (men & women)
• Swimming (men & women)
• Soccer (men)
• Basketball (men)

That’s about the extent of my interest, I believe, other than tennis, which usually doesn’t get a lot of airtime.

Anything less than gold for the US men’s basketball team is unacceptable. I look forward to seeing them win it.
