Did you see the relay last night? USA was not suppose to win. France was favored. He is part of that team, team USA won in a thrilling finish. He was cheering the swimmer on!
It was outstanding effort by team USA considering they shattered the record by 4 seconds. Four seconds!!

I think Sweden also broke the old world record last night and they finished 5th in the relay! Great talent in the swimming events for these Olympics.

Well he's kind of had it in me ever since i accidentally ran over his dog. Actually, replace "accidentally" with "repeatedly" and replace "dog" with "son".
