Re: The Olympics: Beijing - Opening Ceremony

Did everyone get to see the men's 4x100 freestyle relay last night? That is what the Olympics is all about! We are talking "Disney movie" epic comeback! I was on the edge of my seat for the entire race and when Jason Lezak touched the wall first, I lost it.

I need to find the entire race online and hope they do a full replay because that is worth watching again and again and again!

Update: I found a video, but who knows how long it will remain online. This one has Simplified Chinese characters so it will throw the copyright police off the trail for a bit.

BTW: It is narrated in Chinese.

I did see the race last night, it was amazing. The last leg, that Lezak swam was incredible. The whole race was just great.

Go Phelps.
