Why the Olympics are just plain cool



1. Togo's First medal winner

2. Nastia Liukin , plus her tears on the medal stand

3. Bela Karolyi and his passion for gymnastics

4. Shawn Johnson and her grace in taking silver

5. Mark Spitz, on watching his record for medals in swimming likely go to Michael Phelps:

“You know, you judge a person’s character by the company you keep, and I’m glad I’m keeping company with Michael Phelps. I’ll be happy to stand aside and let him carry the torch. He’s just one great athlete, and it’s very exciting to watch him.”

6. Beach volleyball stars Walsh & May fighting off 5 match points to keep their 105 game winning streak alive. I could watch them play all day long. Love it.
