I brought Rick's copy of SI into the house yesterday from the mail box. I should have had sun glasses on because the cover was blinding.Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow.
I was amazed to learn how many calories Michael Phelps eats in a day to have enough energy to swim the amounts of time it takes to train and compete. Take a look at this article from the D News. That's right - 12,000 calories a day. It would cost a lot of money to buy that much food. Oh wait, that's no longer a problem (if it ever was a problem) because he is estimated to rake in $30,000,000.00 in endorsements. Amazing.
Was there ever an athlete more aptly named than Usain Bolt?

The Olympics are amazing, and Phelps and (Lightning) Bolt are some of the greatest performers I've seen.
