We can get our swimmer fixes in 2009!

Weren’t you all worried you would not be able to see our favorite swimmer’s and their torsos for another four years (and a swimmer I know even said Eamon might not be there!)?

Well, we have something to get us through.

I guess this is old news (like… month old news) but NBC will be broadcasting the swimming world championships until the next summer Olympics. This is probably because NBC wants to milk Michael for all he’s worth. They obviously would not have picked this up without the Phelps.

Now we will get our swimming fixes without having to have multiple interuptions for gymnastics.

 And for all of those airplane commercials with Michael Phelps…

This one I posted a little while ago on Perez. Highlight would be the torso.

Then we have this one. Phelps sings Don’t Stop Believin’ very strangely.

And then the prank one, with adorable smile.

I would also like to know why Ryan Lochte isn’t doing any talk shows.

anddd its almost Friday.

I want this week to be over right nowwww. Worst week of my life (and it could have been the best!)

Anyway, besides the fact that I got to sleep until 4:45 pm today after a brief stint at school, Ian Crocker’s hair in this video has probably been the highlight of my week. It’s so… Ellen DeGeneres. (Edit: I think its broken now. You guys are missing out.)

This one is pretty dull, but skip to like…2:20. “Jeah” must be how all the swimmers communicate to each other now.

and if you’re really bored…

I can’t believe I just watched that whole thing, but I was so mesmerized. Skip to 3:07 for an awkward Lochte moment. And I’m am still insanely jealous of Stephanie Rice.

 

blehhhh, I hate colds, Juniorettes, due dates, and lost opportunities.

Swimmer videos and Lochte quote.

They’re my favorite people :]

Aw, scrunchy face. But Kaitlin Sandeno? Um, I think you can shoot a little higher now (or lower… we’re getting married remember?). And she has a total witch laugh. 

Wtf did Eamon say? The Teek? You’d think someone would pick Aquaman. Hahaha, “Superhe… Bananaman!” That’s what I’m being for Halloween this year, let me tell you.

Bitch! I want to be Michael’s brother! Just kidding Katie, you seem like a nice girl, just a bit of an Olympics let-down.

 Oh and this was posted a little while ago. Ryan and Michael like to discuss girls. Judging by Ryan’s Olympic crush and Michael’s strippers, they’re probably cheepy looking. Its ok. You guys can talk about me.

 

With his mom and sisters cheering him on, Michael once again crushed the field, this time in the 200m individual medley. The victory was made even sweeter as his teammate and good friend, the very laid-back Ryan Lochte, brought home the bronze.

“You guys were walking off together, you guys were laughing,” Billy asked. “What are you talking about?”

“Oh I mean, we can talk about anything” Ryan said. “Most likely, it’s some girl that we saw. “

“You guys pop out of the water and you said, “Did you see the blonde in the second row, she was phenomenal?”

“That’s, like, what we basically say to each other, just, it gets our mind off everything, swimming, everything. We just talk about girls.”

 

And Gossip Girl was too boring, yet confusing for me last night, so I cheered myself up with Oprah again (yeah, I watched it twice…) Nate needs to leave the Botox hooker and get back to Vanessa. What a douche.

yeahhhh! Oprah’s guest list.

Guess what I found?!

I hope Lochte gets some good screen time because we know Phelps is going to be having close up shots every 5 seconds. And Jonathan Horton will be there! YES! I bolded everyone I was really happy about. This really will be the best Oprah ever if all those people are there. But where is Lebron and Ricky Berens???
