Zip it France.


I'm not a big swimming fan, but will watch it every four years. I was interested in watching the mens 4x100 freestyle relay tonight because of this little nugget by one of the Frenchie swimmers:

“The Americans?” Alain Bernard recently told the sports newspaper L’Equipe, “We’re going to smash them. That’s what we came for.”

Nothing makes me giggle harder than a Frog talking smack. And when a Frenchman guarantees victory - well that nearly makes me tear an abdominal muscle.

A world record was set in the event tonight. And, yes, the French came in second to the U.S. team. Did anybody NOT see that coming?
