    Anyone else feel like the athletes that are less "hyped" by the media are more fun to watch?

    Missy Franklin....Great to watch.
    Phelps getting silver in "his race"....disappointing. Because everyone basically guaranteed his win. Really downgrades his achievement. A silver or a bronze in any event is a huge accomplishment, but not when everyone is guaranteeing gold.

    I would've thought that you'd be more into women's water polo ... for the wardrobe malfunctions.

    I think we may see him in a few events in Rio...his mom is a big influence on him and she stated she'd like to go to Rio
