Another Night, Another 2 Golds..

I'm typing this as the 4x200m Relay is still going on. We have the world record by almost 4 seconds, and we are smoking everyone else in the pool.

Phelps won his butterfly final earlier, breaking a world record, and our boys are taking the Relay tonight also, smashing the world record by........about 5 seconds. Phelps with 5 golds and 5 world records. The first ever 4x200 under 7 minutes. These numbers are just baffling.

5 down, 3 to go for Michael. Next event: the 200 Individual Medley, Thursday night at 9:48pm. We are witnessing world sports history, folks....enjoy it.
