Oh happy day! This should help with everyone’s withdrawals. Enjoy!

And Jason will be on Conan’s show Tuesday. Be sure to tune in!

I saw this pic on the USA Swimming website and definitely let out a hearty laugh. Not just because Ricky dwarfs the US gymnasts, but also because of how hard he is cheesin’. Nice look, “Tricky Ricky”.

ETA: The video from the Today Show

I know Suz has it posted on MgoSwim, but I want to post it here. Why? I find posting videos fun! And I like contributing! Yay!

Seriously, how cute is Debbie Phelps? The Swim Aids have “LOL” for her!

And I found this interview very well done and it held my attention throughout! Then again, anything Tom Brokaw does holds my attention! I love the wide range of questions!

p.s. Can someone please count how many times Phelps shrugs his shoulders?

HAPPY OLYMPICS, EVERYONE!

So, my ass was not waking up at seven in the morning today to watch the Today show (besides, you ALL know who it was all about!)! It’s bad enough that I have to be up at nine for work and then work eleven hours! So these videos will have to suffice. What more do you want from me? Hmm?

First of all…isn’t the Australian flag kinda wrong?

The way Suz loves Billy Bush, I heart Matt Lauer! And…wasn’t the Lochtenator supposed to be on too?

ETA - Found it, but have no clue how to put it into video! And I have a record on not breaking the site to keep!

BUt I did find this article: http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/26090505/

Go Dara!

Okay….enjoy the ceremonies while I am at work! But thank God for DVR!

Right before finals started on July 4, the crowd was instructed to get loud and that they did! Free shirts were given out so that the colors of our flag were on full display around the Qwest Center. It was awesome! There was also the nightly edition of “the wave”, but we didn’t catch that on video. Kiwi took a video to try and capture some of that excitement. Watch it below:

And the random “woooo” action you hear in background of the video was not us. It was our fave coach, Paul Yetter, who was sitting with us during that session. Yea, I just called him out. So what?!

I’m not sure how long this will be up since I have no clue if this falls under the ‘restricted content’ umbrella from Trials. The way to know if this is ‘bad’ will be if this post disappears in the near future. Watch the vid while you can!

Here is the parade of Team USA qualifiers for Beijing as they paraded past the media section. There were a few absentees, but I’d say it was the majority of the squad!

Oh, and here is the obligatory NBC Olympics link.

Also, no you’re not seeing things. There are ads on Swim Aids now. Gotta pay the bills, yo!

Eric Shanteau was recently diagnosed with testicular cancer. Prayers to he and his family!
Erik Vendt is fighting back and countersuing TYR.

IOC is trying to clean it up, will increase doping tests in Beijing. Good!

Video Watch: Dara Torres was featured on yesterday’s Access Hollywood.

Amanda Beard is selling her house in Venice, CA.

Video Watch: Ryk Neethling in VISA ad, because this post needs some hotness and everyone’s already seen the Lay’s spot.
