That was Rowdy Gaines saying the French would win. And on paper and based on past performances, the French should have won. And it looked like France was going to win. Right until the very end. What a great finish!!!!!!!!! And don’t diss Rowdy! He had called all the races before pretty accurately. (today. i didn’t watch earlier coverage.)
I was telling my children, “I have that guy’s autograph from 1984 when he won gold at the LA Olympics.” If there’s any reason to give Mr. Gaines grief, it’s ‘cuz he went to Aubarn!!!!!!!!
Way to go US swimmers! Great race! I love their attitude about keeping quiet and letting their swims do the talkin’.
I loved it afterwards, when in the interview, one of our guys referred to them as “the Frenchies.” He must have missed his PC class.
