DAMN, the French swimmers delivered up some Karma from 2008.

I was for sure we were gonna get the gold, then the french guy just BARELY beat us, the opposite of 4 years ago. FUCK!!!

I guess Lochte ran out of gas, and Roberts didn't have enough...

...hilarious.

I just now (1045P Pacific) saw the race. The last French swimmers close was amazing.

I can't cheer for him at all...he blew this race for the USA, plain and simple.

showing his house, the stuff about how he won't stay off of a skateboard...and toured his closet (the shoes and the jewelery).

THAT was enough to turn me off to him...he seemed like kind of an arrogant ass.

Did not congratulate him, it was all about himself, how it didn't matter, etc...what a putz. I'm sorry the US missed out on gold, sort of happy Lochte was the one who blew it.
