The Olympics

What is it about these games? Why am I so addicted? I was never much of a swimmer yet I LOVE to watch the swimming events. I am routing for Michael Phelps like he's related to me. I cry when I see his Mom cry. I'm such a dope. LOL! The beach volleyball is awesome. Julie and I discussed it this weekend. Volleyball is hard on pavement can you imagine it on sand? And like Julie said "I have a hard enough time walking in sand" I couldn't agree more.

And what about that little Chinese boy that walked in the opening ceremonies with Yao Ming. His story made me cry. How 2/3rd's of his classmates died in the earthquake and how he went back in and rescued 2 of them because he was the hall monitor he was supposed to watch out for them. WOW! To me he's something i'll never forget about these games. It doesn't matter to me how many Gold medals anyone wins. He's the biggest winner of these games.

I guess it's something about these Olympics that brings out something in all of us. Here we all our routing for our Country. Doesn't matter what your political views are you just want to see the U.S. win.
