There have been a lot of medals given out at this olympics, and a lot of awesome performances, but at the end of the day, which one did you like the best? Which medal did you feel was the most deserved, the hardest earned, or the funnyest to watch? Which medal were you the most proud that your country won?

To be honest, I didn't watch much olympics this year
Well, other then the women's volleyball... ;D I usually go to the lounge every few days... They seriously have that playing on all the T.V's in there non-stop...
But the first few days of the Olympics were pretty depressing for Canada... How many medals did we win today... Oh yeah, ZERO!, Togo was beating us there for awhile in medal count.
They picked up the slack, but still... Man Adam van Koeverden was such a heart break in rowing. He makes a world record in the qualifiying heats... then places 8th in the event... I feel bad for him, which a heart breaker...

Michael Phelps, that dude lives in an aquarium, I hear, and under his hat there are gills.

I liked the 49's gold medal, it's quite the story, but the IOC finally ruled their way. And sailing is awesome!

.5 Seconds isn't actually all that unusual in swimming. I've swam in races where I've been beat by like .13 -_-
