Watching the Olympics is something I have become very accustomed to doing this week (probably next also), and I saw Phelps win his seventh gold medal tonight. Usually he breaks the world record, but not tonight (really it is Saturday in China.) He won by the narrowest of margins possible (.01 seconds.) And I thought the relay was close against France. That race was more exciting since the USA came from behind in the last 50 m against the trash talking French swimmers. Tonight was the closest I have ever seen. Phelps now has seven golds this Olympics tying Spitz with the most in history at a single games. Phelps will soon attempt to gain his eighth gold with a relay. What a swimmer!!!
