Have people been able to watch them? Thoughts?

Is Phelps the most decorated/accomplished Olympian? Are you "glad" he's "retiring?"

I've only been watching the gymnastics. But it is impressive what Phelps has been able to accomplish.

I have been watching the Olympics as much as I can because it won't be back in 4 years :-[! I think that Micheal Phelps has many great things that everyone can say they did. Micheal is also the most decorated Olypian with 19 medals. That's pretty impressive. I am sad and happy that he is retiring because it's great that he gets to start his life outside the pool but it's a huge loss for the US Swim Team.

Yawn, I care not.  Saw some Russian girls tumbling and throwing *bleep* around today and felt justified in not caring.

I watched the Olympics a little bit, what got me is the ones that won the gold and showed no respect of the flag during the medal ceremony!!  Wont throw no names out there but there were a couple of girls I noticed that showed our American Flag little respect.  They couldn't have cared any less about it.
