phelps gets another gold

[Gooberlx2]

I'm no swimmer.....but man, Phelps sure turned on the heat those last 50m. It must be heartbreaking when you lose to someone else (in any of the timed sports) by "four one-hundredths of a second".

Or win the two S. Korean Gymnists got gipped out of gold medals cause Hamm made the comeback of the century (Im very skeptical about this btw)

You think that's close, the men's 50 was decided by one one-hundredth of a second. Also, Gary Hall acts like a complete douchebag, at least he can back up his cockiness. Nonetheless, I bet the other swimmers (those on his team included) would still kick him in the gonies if given the chance.

Did you actually see it?

His last two routines were flawless. All he had to do was take one of those little hops on a landing to knock himself down to second or third with a .1 deduction. But he didn't.

He got the scores he deserved. 'nuff said.

Edit:

Phelps is awesome, btw.

Yeah I just saw that! You know you're a fast swimmer when you have a wake.

What he's saying is that the South Koreans are protesting his win. They are saying that the Bronze medalist's starting score on the high bar was off by .1 points. I'm assuming he's skeptical of their claim, as am I.

I saw the routine, and am amazed. But at the same point Im skeptical of the entire situation. Yes his last two routines were flawless, but he also fell on his 4th routine, nearly in the judges laps. Even if you are flawless, you need a miracle for something like this to take place. Just so convenient that it happens to an American. Now don't get me wrong, Im very patriotic and happy he won, but at the same point... just how?

Its amazing that ONE other gymnist wasn't able to avoid making (in only 2 more events) the amount of mistakes to equal Hamms giant one.

I couldn't help but laugh at seeing Gary Hall Jr...dressed up like he was in a boxing match before the 50 metres.
