Holy crap! That was incredible. Team usa comes back on the last leg to win the 4x100 free style relay in world record fashion.

That was amazing. That old world record was smashed.

And France ate their words for trash talking. Amazing, how US came back in the last stretch.

That was the best part. France talked so much crap and it looked like they were about to win too but in the last 25meters, the american dude came out of no where.

Jason Lezak was the guy. He set the record for the best split ever. Phelps also broke the record for best lead off swim. Amazing stuff!!

most incredible swim race i've ever seen.

Holy crap.

To add to the amazingness....

italy and sweeden broke the old world record too. That's some tough competition when you have 5 teams breaking the old world record.

That was the best relay swim I have ever seen. I was so hyped especially with the French talking trash.

JL swam the race of his life on that last leg...........WOW

Why feel bad? They talked the talk, and we walked the walk.

fanboyslim · by **fanboyslim** on Mon Aug 11, 2008 1:05 am

What did the French say? I missed that part.

I would have hope Phelps had gone for the record with the mustache. Now that would had put him and Spitz on even ground. :mhihi:

KB24 · by **KB24** on Mon Aug 11, 2008 1:24 am

I really hope Phelps can get his 8 gold medals...that would be insane and unmatched for all times.

He's won the two toughest gold medals in his schedule. So its a very strong possibility.

he looks naked here.

Must have been awesome to witness it live, but on TV of course you get to see a little bit more. One of the best races in swimming we will ever see.

nameant · by **nameant** on Mon Aug 11, 2008 8:34 am

That was truly awesome to watch. Never been one to watch swimming but I wanted to follow Phelps and his chase. I heard about France talking ish so I tuned in. I yelled when we won like I would with the Lakers. :jam2:

leakbrewergator · by **leakbrewergator** on Mon Aug 11, 2008 8:38 am

That race was incredible. I'm not a big fan of swimming, but I'm glad I tuned in for that one.

westcoast21 · by **westcoast21** on Mon Aug 11, 2008 10:15 am

Race was amazing. Glad the French got owned, especially the guy that ran his mouth, hes the one that ends up losing :man10:

puffyusaf#2 · by **puffyusaf#2** on Mon Aug 11, 2008 4:09 pm

I loved when Phelps walks over to the French (yapper) swimmer who is still in the water and taps him on the head to shake his hand. :jam2:

Great show of sportsmanship by MP but you know that French cat had to be like FU Phelps I hate you forever now :man10:

Tobias Funke · by **Tobias Funke** on Mon Aug 11, 2008 7:22 pm

Another WR for Phelps.
