Wooohooo :D
that Gold was cool, i was beating my leg to make them go faster through that race.
World record as well !!
I'm not even South African and i was shouting for them :D

Phelps not going to get his 8 golds now tho :? i felt kinda sorry for him cos he's clearly a brilliant swimmer but the rest of his USA team just wasn't up to it.
I hope he gets his golds in his solo races

Go SA, bring back the medals!

Do you guys know that 13kg of gold were used to make the gold medals and a ton of silver and bronze each for the other two medals. Not sure why it's only 13kg and the others of a ton each. I'm guessing the gold metal are just gold plated, and not pure gold, 'cos that'll be way too expensive. Hey?

Yeah, you right. Gee, you examined the site. But that's some dudes comment. He's probably American or something.If so, he'd be 200kg, watching Jerry Springer, being arrogant and wouldn't even know where South Africa is anyway. Fresh stereotype there.

For those you can't be bothered to go to that site here is what he wrote : "[talking about Aussie accent] Anyone from ANYWHERE will have an accent, AND yes there are worse ones, LIKE Tasmanian, South Africa.. Ireland! "

Us? South African's don't even have an accent. We speak properly! I mean Pommy's can't even speak there own language and Americans change spellings of words like "color" and then mass produce goods with these words/spellings on it, and try get us to believe that they are right.

Well there's my rant for the day.
