No more Olympics until 2010(Winter)


I have very much enjoyed these Olympics. Starting with that opening ceremony  which was out of this world. The fireworks, the performers, the technology, and the creativity were amazing. Good thing I have Tivo so I can keep watching the ceremony when I want. I stayed up pretty much every night to watch the games. Michael Phelps is a beast, 8 gold medals is incredible!! Watching the 4x100m mens relay freestyle was crazy. I jumped off my couch when Phelps won the 100m butterfly, it was so close.
   The Jamaicans killed the competition in track this year, especially Usain Bolt who blew away everyone in the 100m and 200m.  The US men's basketball brought Gold back to the USA. I have to give it to Dwyane Wade who led in scoring in the Gold medal game with 27 points. He also made 4/7  three pointers and shot 75% from the field. GO HEAT!!
I know that the USA got the most medals but it was China who got the most Gold. Overall, the Chinese did a great Job hosting these olympics. Now we wait for the Winter Olympics 2110 in Vancouver, then the Summer Olympics 2112 in London. Can't wait
